This artwork was painted by a local artist with the help of schoolchildren as part of the Heritage Project - A River for All. It is a mural about Ipswich's river heritage on a wall that was previously sprayed with graffiti.

The project aimed to increase local community awareness of Ipswich's industrial heritage, the River's central role in the origins and development of the town, and the natural heritage for which it still acts as a refuge.

The interpretation boards along the River Gipping/Orwell through the centre of Ipswich were also a result of the River for All project.
