More pictures of not-Wolverhampton


This is the Shakespeare Chimney! Dan and I lived here. It's the remaining chunk of the Archbishop's Palace, in which the Bishop of Bangor and Owain Gyndwr plot, in Henry IV part I.



Just for Dan



Racism never dies. It just moves to the seaside.



Tranquil, huh?



It's not Norman. It's a Victorian pastiche built by the local aristos off the backs of the slate miners. Very unpleasant family. Some of the national art treasures were stored there in WW2 until it was discovered that they were being abused.



I'm rather pleased with this one.
