Banksy in Lyme Regis

At the beginning of April this new piece of street art was discovered in Lyme Regis, as was mentioned at the time on the Lyme Regis Society blog. It depicts an origami-style crane holding a goldfish in its beak, and is located by the river where Coombe Street meets Mill Green. It looks like the work of the world-famous Bristol based artist, Banksy.

Natalie Manifold now reports that the picture has been confirmed as a genuine Banksy! The photograph below is featured on the official Banksy website at http://www.banksy.co.uk/outdoors/crane.html:
