Then & Now: Royal Avenue

Modern day Royal Avenue


The white building to the left is now Tesco Metro, the brownstone next to it is now a bank and a gentlemen's club upstairs, next to the bank is a record store and then Castle Court. The rest of the old buildings you see to the right along this street are just the original facades but nothing behind them. Pity. :(
