A Banksy mural which appeared overnight on the side of a house on England s steepest road just before it was sold was today removed.
The piece, entitled Aachoo! , was first discovered on the external wall of the semi-detached property on Vale Street in Totterdown, Bristol, last December.
The image depicted an elderly woman sneezing and created the illusion that the force of the pensioner s sneeze had knocked over houses built above it.
Today crowds of onlookers nervously watched on as workers began the delicate and arduous task of removing the piece from the property by crane after it appeared to have been sold.
