Here is a detail from a fairly long mural depicting children’s street games and Mickey Marley’s Roundabout (pulled by his horse Joey) on a wall and security gate that are part of the Townsend Street “peace” line. (For another pole swing, see Stroud Street.) Mickey Marley was so well-known that a song was written for him, which you can hear on youtube.
Townsend Street Presbyterian church can be seen in the background and in the mural. For the part on the gate, see Through The Wardrobe.
