A community art project that saw art displayed at Garston railway station has been shortlisted for a national award.

More than 60 local residents also created seven large wooden painted sculptures that now line the footpath outside the station.
This work has now earned two nominations – in the categories of involving young people and community art schemes – at the Association of Community Rail Partners Community Rail Awards.
