The mural was formed from 13 bespoke panels carved by Mitchell and filled with polyester resin. It was installed in a community hall on the Brooklands Park Estate, a post-war housing scheme  built 1955-58,  but  came under threat with plans to demolish the hall for new social housing.  Campaigning by local residents, support from C20 Society and crucial funding and project management from the Heritage of London Trust led to its conservation and relocation in 2026  to a new location 250m  away in the main hall of Brooklands Primary School.
