A massive mural of Ringo Starr has been unveiled on the side of his old local pub in Toxteth, The Empress.

Liverpool artist John Culshaw is the man behind the colourful artwork, which towers from the pavement to the roof.

The artist said: “Initially, it was going to be a Beatles themed mural; it wasn’t going to be just Ringo, but with his connection to the area, we went with him.

“However, we still wanted to be as bright and as vibrant as possible, so I researched what we could put in there. We decided to go with a cartoon of the yellow submarine and the octopus as well.”

A painter decorator by trade, John had done work on the inside of the pub before he spoke to the owner about creating a mural on the external wall of the property.
