A Son of the Rock

After Market Harborough we visited Barnsdale, where the TV gardener Geoff Hamilton had his gardens, as the good lady was a great fan of his gardening style. From there we travelled on to Oakham, the county town of Rutland, the smallest county in England, where I found some (minor) deco.

Lloyd’s Bank:-

First of a row of Art Deco style shops. Built in 1934 but eyes poked out. Good detailing in the brickwork:-

Remainder of the terrace. Deco roof-line and detailing. Eyes poked out:-

In main street. Nice curve to this, but pretty bland otherwise:-
