The rather unloved-looking Tameside Hippodrome unexpectedly loomed into my vision as I arrived at Tameside Archives...
Does anyone know of its fate? It looks pretty lonely.

Say hello to these fabulous beasties who live on #Birmingham's Church of St Martin in the Bullring.
Met them at the end of a fab stillwalking.org walk- Devilish Details.
Always #lookup!

Happy 100th birthday to Skegness' neo-Georgian GII listed former Town Hall, North Parade!
1926: opened as a convalescent home
1964: repurposed as a town hall
2023: sold as 'surplus to requirements' & plans approved to convert it into a hotel.
Wheeeeeeeee!

A week to go! #SeasideHeritage
One of my latest #HouseHistory projects took me to #Northallerton where I stayed at Porch House, reputedly the town's oldest house. Loved my room, with exposed beams here & there, wonky floor & this painting of Charles I astride a chonky horse-cow. He stayed there apparently. Charles, not the horse.
This postcard shows the scene down the Water Chute at Marine Lake Pleasure Grounds in Rhyl.

Ha, can relate. There comes a point when it's just WET no matter what.
Thank you, yes, as you say, it gives hope! 🙏
Thank you! I wonder if anything has happened between then and now?
