It’s a mural that has been unearthed during the current work. It was drawn by Rolf Harris in the former chief engineer’s office in 1979 as a thank you for the help he received during a season of shows at the venue. It depicts impresario Robert Nesbitt at the front of the stage and staff handing Rolf the extra leg for the Jake the Peg routine.
