A proposal for a new Chartist mural in Newport has been recommended for approval by planning officers.
The plan is for a piece of art copying the same design as the mosaic mural that once stood in the city's John Frost Square, itself named after the Chartist leader.
It will tell the story of the 1839 Newport Rising, during which 22 demonstrators were fatally shot by troops outside the Westgate Hotel.
The artist behind it is the son of the man who created the first mural in the 1970s.
Rogerstone's proposed artwork will be a quarter of the size of the 115ft-long original, which was demolished in October 2013 as part of the Friars Walk shopping centre development
Rogerstone Community Council's project will be dependent on Heritage Lottery Fund support and planning permission from Newport City Council, which could be granted on April 3.
If approved the mural would be set against four display panels on the site of the former public toilets in Cefn Road, Rogerstone, with a commemorative bench also proposed.
It would be built by Oliver Budd, son of the artist Kenneth Budd who created the first mural in the 1970s.
A planning officer's report says: "The proposed mural and associated landscaping, by virtue of size, design and location would relate sympathetically to its surroundings and enhance the surrounding area."
