A Great Yarmouth business has thought outside the box - or rather, tank - for a unique coronation mural.

ATI Tank Hire on Thamesfield Way has partnered with artist Gary Hogben to create a colourful royal mural on one of their open-top tanks.

Using vinyl to cover the surface of the 3m by 5.5m tank, Mr Hogben and the ATI team worked together to create the eye-catching coronation tank, which will be on display near the Thamesfield Way entrance throughout the summer.

Mr Hogben said: "It was a pleasure to have the opportunity to do something for the coronation on this scale. 

"I’ve done street art before, but nothing this large and what it represents makes me extremely happy. 

"It surely makes an imposing canvas."

The artwork was created digitally before being printed onto a large piece of vinyl. The crew from ATI worked together to attach the vinyl and manoeuvre the tank into position near their site.

ATI's marketing executive Maria McNevin said the team showed "impressive forklift skills" to align the coronation tank without a scratch.

"The tank is a real head-turner," she added.
