The final scene of the Jubilee Mural contains five items related to Salisbury’s royal celebrations, which people brought along to our Memory Day. They don’t show up very well on the screen. The best way to see them is to visit the mural, but if you can’t here are photos of them. The downloadable PDF document below has an annotated picture of this part of the mural.

A mug celebrating the 1953 Coronation was given to each child in Salisbury. My mother had to collect our mugs from a building in St. Thomas's Square that was next to Snell's café and chocolate shop.
