Hayfield Civic Trust supported and donated £500 towards the completion of the successful Underpass Mural Project. Pictures from the archive of Hayfield Civic Trust were used in one of the panels. The local artist Sue Mc Call designed the panels which can now be seen in the underpass from the bus station into Hayfield.

The display proved to be very popular and led to a further display and exhibition of materials relating to Hayfield's history at the Annual General Meeting in March 2026.
