A landlord near Warwick has won a 'David and Goliath' battle to keep a bull mural on the side of his 400-year-old pub - as long as he makes the pub look like a farm.

My name is Martin, I'm the landlord at the Bull's Head in Wottonwowen in Warwickshire.
00:14
It's a 17th century pub. We've recently had approval for our mural on the front elevation
00:22
of the building. It was painted by a local artist, Phil Taylor, in Leamington Spa last
00:29
June. We were told that we had to remove the mural which we didn't want to do so we decided
00:35
to put in a retrospective application. We had tremendous support from the local community
00:41
and further afield. We had a great petition running where we had some 1500 signatures.
00:50
We recently got the approval just last week. We're allowed to keep the mural as long as we
00:56
maintain it and we are extremely pleased to keep it. Come along, come and see the mural.
01:05
We keep the pub beautifully preserved as a heritage pub
01:09
but we also serve Thai food. We have four Thai chefs
01:12
all from Thailand and we have the most authentic food within the Midlands.
