Banksy may have struck again as a mural in the renowned street artist's style was spotted on the side of a pub in Greater Manchester.
Despite being one of Britain's most famous artists, Banksy’s identity is a secret, although it is known he comes from Bristol.
People who first spotted the artwork at the The Griffin Hotel in Stockport, said they believed it was a genuine Banksy.
The mural is in Banksy's usual style of stencilled spray painted imagery.
People living in Stockport think this artwork of a young boy flying a kite on the side of the Griffin Hotel pub was created by the well-known artist Banksy
The landlord of the Griffin Hotel, Danny Chambers, said: 'It’s obviously a surprise. It had just appeared when I came back from the shops.
'People have been talking about it and asking questions about it but I don’t know anything about it so I’ve not really had any answers.
'We’ve got our own artwork in the beer garden that we paid an artist for but the one out there is nothing to do with me.'
