Ross-on-Wye
Posted in Art Deco, Trips, Woolworths at 20:44 on 31 July 2012
We finally got to see the Wye when we reached Ross – and a sluggish, sludgy thing it looked too. (Probably all that June rain.)
I didn’t find the War Memorial (but I did buy a book!)
Almost the first shop I noticed was this:-
It looks very like a former Woolworths to me but is now a Spar.
There was a row of very 30s looking shops leading down from the main road junction. (Unfortunately a random woman was crossing the street when I took the photo.)
The local branch of Edinburgh Woollen Mill was just to the right of these, bang on the junction. Nice railings below the windows.
The building above was somewhat incongruously over the road from some conspicuous mediævality.
