Hello peeps. I had occasionally seen this on line and had no idea what it was. I decided to go
take a looksie back in October.

The History
In 1876 John Edward Wainhouse improved a terrace of back to back houses
by adding a mediterranean style colonnade and balconies.

The houses themselves were demolished in 1978 and unfortunately the site has had the usual
vandalism and has also been a popular spot for drug users with syringes littering the
place, indeed one 29 Year old , Liam Jones, was found dead there of a suspected drugs overdose, his
family having lost his younger brother 2 years earlier to drink and drugs.

Well that's set a cheery tone hasn't it ?

so on with the piccies:

I'm wondering if the flowers are for Liam ?
