Christie added: “It has been our pleasure to welcome the children of Beech Lodge School to Waterside Quarter to unveil this fabulous new sculpture. The commentary was provided by the Mayor, who is also seen on screen performing duties and catching a bus. At home, his poor wife looks like more like a servant than his life partner. Daniel Gillespie, headteacher at Beech Lodge School, said: "We at Beech Lodge School are delighted to be involved in this lovely ‘pig celebration’. In December 2012 the Golden Harp pub in Furze Platt (situated a mile north of the Craufurd Arms) was closed and re-developed into a convenience store. Tesco had secured a 20-year lease on the property without consulting the community as at the time it was not a requirement to do so.

In 1960, Maidenhead was home to 30,000 people (it was just over 70,000 in 2020), and was a very different place to today. As part of the celebration, one student from Beech Lodge School was chosen to receive a special prize due to his creative sculpture design. Then off to work at the old Police Station, just off Queen Street - Berkshire Constabulary then, follwed by a decade at a local insurance brokers in York Road.Councillor Wayne then wanted permission for traffic signals at the junction of the High Street and King Street. The pub is the ideal venue for many activities and strong working relationships have been developed and established with a wide cross section of local clubs, societies and organisations in the local community. The return of peace time gave the local Town Council the opportunity to start redevelopment of Maidenhead. There was a desperate shortage of housing and one of the first tasks was to build a new estate at Pinkneys Green. The new roads were named after RAF aircraft.

Mr Bayford from the Public Health team is seen talking to the owner of Steventon’s Stores (“Phone 386”!)

We carefully covered the surface with individual beads of weld that give the impression of the Berkshire Pig's characteristic long hair. The sculpture is made from pieces of mild steel which have been beaten into shape then welded together. I saw it quite clearly and stood trembling with fear waiting for an explosion. An explosion never came.

I continued to do my paper round and discovered that one of my customers was George Allison, the manager of Arsenal Football Club. On Saturday 13th May, visitors to Waterside Quarter enjoyed a fun free fairground inspired event to celebrate the installation of the final piece of artwork in the Maidenhead Memories Sculpture Trail, a traditional fairground horse. In attendance were the councillors, the Town Clerk, Aldermen (the elders of the council), the Borough Surveyor, the Borough Treasurer, the Medical Officer of Health, the Borough Librarian and members of the public (who may have included local newspaper staff).They also approved the revised tender of the materials to construct the new Town Hall and Civic Centre. The short film ends with the Mayor laying the Foundation Stone for this new building in St Ives Road.
