The Crypt Restaurant


Ravaged by fire many years ago and also on the road to the seafront

A fine building


All boarded up now and right on the road to the seafront

They are supposed to be developing this site but it's been a long time coming.
And in the background the infamous eyesore that is Burlington House.
It's been empy for years and blocks out the view of the castle from many angles

Silvers Post Office


Closed for a few months now.
I worked there many years ago.
End of an era

Indoor Market


Closed for many years now

The Renaissance public house


Closed for a long time and then,as the same suggests,opened again some years ago.
Sadly,it's closed again

Smart flowers


On the station and blooming in November

Neglected paintwork


Peeling paint that neither shop seem to want to rectify.
Maybe it's no man's land

Victoria Crescent Dover


An elegant row of houses in town.
One is a chiropodists premises and has been for many,mnay years

Ravaged church




This church had been converted into apartments.
A fire swept through on the day of viewing some months ago.
Nothing has happened since

Town Houses in Dover


They became very run down a few years ago but they are looking elegant now

Neglected plants


It was nice two summers ago. Then they just left it.
It's the first dwelling that people see when the leave the train station

Woolworth's loading bay


There is modern and modern.
This is boxes

Macdonalds


The back of their brightly coloured eating place.

Woolworth came

An entire street filled with a modern take on architecture.
Finished with what looks like a huge waste bin



Another nice building


Horses were once stabled through the gap.
It's a taxi office now

A fine example of town architecture


The shops are are colourful yet most people never look above them
