Yes, this is a SuperMarine plane etched into the bank of this roundabout. I'm sure you guessed that.
This shape, on the northern Tunstall by-pass, is a tribute to the aircraft designer RJ Mitchell, who was born hereabouts. He also designed the more famous Spitfire.
The work is already beginning to show wear, sadly.
It is not even that clear what it is, unless you know.
I have a feeling it won't be there much longer.
Nice tribute that
