Ominous sign

You come across some strange signs as you pass through this life. What deep excavation could there be in Cottingham station?

The Black Mill, Beverley

The Old Corn Exchange, Beverley

Built in 1886 as a Corn Exchange, Butter Market and Baths this building has seen service as an infants school, then as the Picture Playhouse until 2003 and now it's a department store.

Civic Statuary

High above the entrance to the old County Court sits this statue that I assume is meant to represent justice since it has a set of scales in its hands. Sitting on top of this is another monumental sculpture part of a group representing The Daughters of Neptune  which appeared in an earlier post. These are by A H Hodge who did lots of monumental stuff at the turn of the last century.

Larkin Statue

Recently installed in Hull's Paragon Station this larger than life statue of Philip Larkin completes a far too long jamboree of arty celebrations of the death 25 years ago of this somewhat overrated wordsmith.

Ice fountain

Big Charley in the snow

Charley is a big cat, the biggest I've ever seen, but he really hates deep snow. He much prefers the warmth of Summer.
