Longhills - Paras Murals

During a short period on 1944 when 250 (Airborne) Light Composite Company, R.A.S.C. were billeted in The Hall at the Longhills, Branston, one member of the company, named Arthur Sims, created these murals, depicting military actions, on the wall of one of the rooms. It is believed that in later life he was employed at the Gene Autry film studios in California.
