The Jesus of Jarrom Street

The Jesus of Jarrom Street

Diagonally opposite Leicester's The Robert Peel pub hangs the Jesus of Jarrom Street. Just off the pavement behind a low metal fence in front of St. Andrew's Church. Today he has a backdrop of scaffolding poles. Some essential building maintenance is taking place. A workman walks behind the cross, a bucket of mortar in his left hand. He ties the bucket handle to a rope looks up and whistles. It rises slowly towards the roof.
