Bethan Ward at No. 10 Stafford Street is Eccleshall’s go-to destination for beauty and undies.

Blossom Street, York
Time to update the archive! This is a short length of Blossom Street, right next to Micklegate Bar, the ancient and most significant south west gateway into the walled City of York. You can just see the stonework to the … Continue reading
Bathurst Mansions, Holloway Road, London N7
This extraordinary building can be found on the corner of Holloway Road and Seven Sisters Road, London N7. The carved stonework high above the street caught my eye: There’s a lot of classical detail going on in here – a … Continue reading
