Derby Architecture

[cat63.livejournal.com]

Not, I admit, the first thing most people are going to think of in connection with Derby. It's not like Bath, where the archtecture walks up, slaps you in the face and demands that you look at it. But there are some very nice buildings and other features in Derby. Often you have to look up to see them, because many of the best buildings have high street shops on the ground floor, but the upper storeys are often things of genuine beauty. Today I finally had the opportunity to photograph some of them and put them into this very long post.

Dial up will run away screaming from the number of pictures under the cut.
