Here if you ever needed it, is another of those simple lessons in always looking up.
I have passed these buildings so many times and have never really looked up to admire them.
Usually I am hurrying past and get no further than garish mix of signage at ground level.
Although I do have to admit for a while in the late 1970s and early ‘80s I regularly called in at Grassroots the alternative book shop.
But then the demands of a young family precluded leisurely saunters through town on Saturday mornings, and then when I did go back the bookshop had gone.
Still the buildings are there and in the March sunlight Andy caught them at their best.
Now I do have to confess to being a tad lazy and have not gone looking for their history, but someone will know it and tell me.
