The more curious of locations are those that have not changed. One in particular on Church Street, in an area that has been promised regeneration is an idiosyncratic feature of the city's aesthetic. The building that was here has long been torn down to reveal a backdrop of old tiles, still in place. The trace of previous lives here leads me to step aside from this project. I realised it isn't just about economy, aesthetics and redevelopment and more to do with layers and histories.
