WESTBURY White Horse has been given a permanent home at the Wiltshire County Council offices.

Four paintings were unveiled at the Members Room in County Hall on Friday, including a representation of the White Horse by Trowbridge artist Ray Hoare.

The paintings were commissioned in recognition of the Queen's Golden Jubilee to recognise talented local artists.

Allan Peach, deputy chairman of the county council, said: "The scheme was devised to celebrate the artistic community in Wiltshire. The county boasts a great many very talented artists and all the paintings were chosen for their depiction of our county's unique landscapes."

Three other paintings include two of the Wiltshire countryside by Colin Garret, of Devizes, and Wardour Castle by Salisbury-based artist Chris Riisager.
