Disused shop, Bangor
Image: © Rossographer Taken: 5 Jun 2009
Disused shop at 98 High Street in Bangor. Named 'McVeigh' this was a shop that traded in what I can best describe as 'undergarments for the more mature lady'. It appeared to trade steadily until one day nearly 10 years ago when it closed suddenly and has never reopened since. All of the stock is still within, untouched from the date of closure, and can be glimpsed through the windows. The only sign of life since has been the smashed panel on the door, the result of drunken vandalism. The shop sits at the end of a short two storey terrace constructed c1870. The larger three storey terrace running to the left of picture was constructed c1900.
