Walking through Hamtun's new Market Square, I chanced to look above BK. Not noticed it before!
Needs a lick of Snowcem but otherwise ...

That was probably a Burtons tailor’s originally.

The Odeon Cinema in Morecambe is still there, but has been a DIY shop for decades and looks a lot worse for wear.

The Burton's Tailors shop was in Gold Street but was destroyed by an RAF bomber that crashed into it during the war ~ Local rag linkie ~
I'm not sure what it used to be but will do a bit of research at some point 👍

Another surviving Art Deco cinema is the Everyman cinema in York - which was also an Odeon in the past

The exterior of the Old Savoy is in the first post on this thread...

This is some of the interior as grandson and I were waiting for the pantomime to start this afternoon.

I’ve been in there as a kid, & drove past it last year, after staying in ’The Midland Hotel’ for a couple of nights

House in Castleford

Back in the late 80s I unsuccessfuly tried to persuade my parents to buy this when it was on the market. I wonder if the period bathroom has survived?

I know that house too
’Chatelaine’, as it was named
Built for a local Doctor
We also looked at it, when it was for sale (early-mid 2000s)
I might still have the estate agents ‘brochure’ for it somewhere?
It must have seemed like some sort of palace to the locals, when it was built in the 1930s, surrounded by rows of red-brick terraced housing
