Portuguese pavement mosaic in Great Yarmouth to be ‘UK’s first’
Mr Cruz said it would be made from Portuguese stone and would cost up to £25,000.
He added: “The idea is the celebration of the links between Portugal and England.
“There are examples of this paving in Portugal and in Spain and France, as well as other parts of Europe and in former Portuguese colonies, but there is none in the UK, so this will be the first, and we are hoping there will be a replica of this installation created in Lisbon.”
He added: “Imagine doing a massive stencil like Banksy does, but we will put it on the floor and use different coloured limestone.
“The pieces of stone will be broken with a hammer, by hand, to fill in the gaps, using white, black and a special rose stone from Portugal, which will give it a bit of colouring.”
