This mural wraps up the historic and memorable mural I found on Godley Head summit during my walk.

The artist of this mural is Wongi Wilson, and from Wongi's Instagram page, I found out the woman in the first photo is Mavis Cotterell.

The mural in this gun battery is specifically in honor of the women's Auxiliary Army Corps from what I gathered briefly.

Aside from the gun batteries, I explored inside the buildings on Godley Head. Some of the murals inside the buildings were not so interesting to me, so I didn’t photograph them.

Looking back I am quite pleased to have found this mural in an unexpected place at Godley Head.

The first photo is my entry to this week's contest.

Now we shall move to Christchurch city as I share some stunning murals I hunted from next weekend onwards.

Yes, very much. 🤩
Getting the last things for the van in the next days. So we can comfortable sleep and cook our meals along the road.
I will drive past a friend first on Saturday going up. Depending on how long we want to stay there… but I think we will be on the road from Sunday onwards.

Great tribute with this mural in the battery gun. It adds a little color to this former military structure. Thanks for sharing these pics on The StreetArt Community.

Have a great day

Yes it does giving the battery gun a lively look while being preserved.

Thank you
