An unusual photo taken of an object that is found in a very prominent position in the Three Towns area.    Where would you see this object?

Well done Nemesis and spotty dog.         I was hoping that it was going to be a real stinker but you both got it very quickly.

I've walked past the building thousands of times before and have even been in it but I've  never noticed it before.

I don't think that those Doves or Pigeons would have pooped on the carpets though!      ???

When I was in my early teens I never went past that building as there was no need.

Well done Cambrian, spot on.               &well&

I passed it when I went to the Archives recently and just noticed the triangular shaped Dove cote.    I used to attend  Lloyd Street Primary School and must have passed that building twice a day for about 6 years or so.
I've been inside and I think at the time that it was a carpet warehouse and remember that the owner was a nice guy but I've forgotten his name.

Thanks Hugo.

The chap who had the carpet business was Frank Hayward.  I think he died about 5 years ago.

Yes that's him, a really nice guy and a friend of my late father.   Sorry to hear that he had passed away
