Created by Gary Drostle and Rob Turner to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Sutton's twinning with Wilmersdorf, Berlin. It comprises seven panels showing scenes of Sutton and its four European twin towns: Gagny (a suburb of Paris in France), Gladsaxe (a suburb of Copenhagen in Denmark), Minden in North Rhine-Westphalia and Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf in Berlin. There is also a 'friendship link' with Tavernelle, south of Florence.
