James Cranston of Birmingham designed this lovely set of buildings in 1862, and the Tenbury Improvement Company built them afterwards. The buildings are very impressive and creative, but they became derelict in 1939 and remained in that condition for 60 years. As the 20th century came to a close, the buildings were preserved to their original condition and here they are, in all heir glory. This is the most recognised landmark in the town, and I'm not sure why I never stumbled upon these until the day I took this photograph (I did know this building in the past).
