Bridport's Domino's, former Caf? Royale

This was the Café Royale and had windows set leaning up and out at an angle to the vertical, which were considered to be an unusual example of mid 20thC architecture and an asset to the town. When the building was changed to a Domino's earlier this year, the windows were replaced with vertical ones against the planning approval agreements for change of use. After a stand-off with the planners, the owners/franchisees got away with the change retrospectively using health and safety as an argument. Funny that nobody had thought of any safety objections previously during the many years since the originals were installed at an angle. See also Image and Image
