A successful punctuation mark in brick and terracotta. The copper dome has an impressive finial which goes on that bit further than one expects. Built as the Central Temperance Hotel in 1901-03 to the designs of Lewis Sheppard & Son. Grade II listed. The shop looked empty at the time. The banner was advertising the Worcester Foodie Festival.
