===Public art in Sutton town centre=== [[File:Sutton, Surrey London Heritage Mural edited-4.jpg|thumb|Sutton Heritage Mural]] {{main|List of public art in Sutton}} There are a number of examples of [[List of public art in Sutton|public art in Sutton]] town centre, ranging from building-height murals, to sculptures to an [[armillary]]. These are all fully described in the article on the town of [[Sutton, London|Sutton]] itself. Of particular ''borough-wide'' note is one of the murals, which is in the form of a mosaic measuring {{convert|9|m|ft|abbr=off}} in height and {{convert|5|m|ft|abbr=off}}approximately) in width, and covering the whole of a three-storey wall in the town square near the [[Waterstones]] bookshop. It was made from vitreous ceramic tesserae (small tiles made of glass and clay), and put in place in 1994. It was commissioned to celebrate Sutton's heritage, and shows several aspects of the borough's heritage and local history in a geometric pattern of nineteen panels. The centre-piece is the depiction of Henry VIII's palace at Nonsuch. Other panels depict armorial bearers from the old local families, as well as industrial and architectural heritage.<ref>[http://www.drostle.com/suttonheritage.html Drostle and Turner fine tiles β Sutton Heritage page] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121022061046/http://www.drostle.com/suttonheritage.html |date=22 October 2012 }}</ref>
