Object No.99

The ‘Cat on the Mat’ mosaic is one of 5 situated in the formal part of the Secret Garden in the footprint of the two ‘villas’ that originally stood here. They were created by different groups of local people under the guidance of mosaic artists Cathy Ebbels and Jill Kitchen.

The three large mosaics are each located in the appropriate room for what they are depicting – the mangle in the scullery, the scale and rhubarb crumble ingredients in the kitchen and the cat on a mat in front of the living room fire. The Cat mosaic was made by members of the Senior Citizens’ Coffee morning group.
