Coal Drops Yard, London, England, U.K.

Just a few minutes from the King’s Cross/St. Pancras railway complex in London are the Coal Drop Yards, a former industrial area along the Regents Canal being remade for modern retail/leisure, near other new buildings housing offices and residential spaces. Here is one of the buildings, as it was about a year ago.

Now that’s what you call repurposing. Spotted this food stall in Brighton back in May 2018.

Bollard of love

Came across this impromptu decoration in Cardiff last May and it seemed timely to share this photo today.

London, England, U.K.

There’s a lot going on at/near the roofline of many buildings in central London. This image is from my most recent visit to the city, back in September 2016.
