A melancholy ruin. Mid C19th, stuccoed with various trimmings so somebody wanted to show off. W.W. Laycock & Sons Ltd was unsurprisingly engaged in metalwork industries - cutlery or silversmithery perhaps. Further along, another former occupant, Hill Bros (Silversmiths), is painted on the wall (Image]). A sign optimistically proclaims a redevelopment opportunity, underneath which a rather more serious, and lithe, photographer than me was contorting himself to get the best angle.
