I just took a discrete photograph into the close as it's all sheltered housing and retirement homes for the elderly, of which I am one, but I don't live here. I did attract attention and was asked by an elderly gentleman if I was there to photograph the Town Hall. Before I could answer, I was told what an eyesore it was. So that's one opinion. There again, most places look untidy when they are boarded up. His wife gave him the, "What are you on about", look, when he told me the old Drill Hall was once the Town Hall. Which it wasn't. The housing in the close was built in 1969.
