Melton Mowbray (ii)
Posted in Architecture, Art Deco, Trips at 18:00 on 26 September 2014
As I spotted the Regal Cinema I looked down a side street and saw a Deco roofline. I made a mental note but when we worked round to the main street I saw it again. Right beside the building which houses Lloyds Bank.
This building isn’t really curved. The picture is a stitch of two photos to show it all. Good frieze here above the circular feature. At the extreme right in the photo above is the building with the roofline I’d seen earlier. It has a strong corner element:-
Even before those two I’d already photographed Middletons. Good windows and the detail on the roofline at the angled frontage is pleasing:-
Melton Mowbray’s Bargain Buys might be deco. Nice brickwork, whatever.
Bailey’s definitely fits the bill though. Good strong horizontals and verticals:-
