Huddersfield
Statue of Harold Wilson outside Huddersfield's grand railway station
The railway station
A shopping street
Another shopping street
This HSBC building is very much out of place here, it dwarfs the surrounding buildings and the complex facade robs all the attention
An interesting location for a "Thank You For Shopping At Marks & Spencer" sign
Huddersfield's rather Brutalist Plaza shopping centre
A very fifties shop
More Brutalist architecture
This bar obviously used to be a cinema
More Brutalism
"The Shambles", part of the Plaza shopping centre complex and a typically 1960s precinct
The sign says it all
The Shambles from the outside showing some very eyecatching architecture
Looking towards the Market Hall
One of the exits from Queensgate Market, showing the superb sculptured stone
An external view of Queensgate Market, oine of the finest Modern buildings in the country
The market features a unique parabolic shell roof design
Inside the market hall, note how light and airy the roof makes it
The shell roof sections are all of the same design but their height is varied to allow light entry.
An interesting sculpture along one of the walls
The interior of the market hall is a fantastic space
Huddersfield library and art gallery
Looking past the library towards the Plaza
The Plaza development
A 1950s development near the market hall
A panoramic view West of Huddersfield
This fantastic Art Deco store is sadly boarded up.
These Brutalist shops seem to be missing windows
Exterior of the market hall...it doesn't look so distinctive from this perspective
A delighful 60s artwork
Huddersfield Bus Station
A back street
A 'Pacer' pulls out of Huddersfield station
"Designer Ear"? Must be Vincent Van Gogh's favourite shop
That fabulous neo-cloassical station once again
