Flat 4, a pictorial tribute

We were up in Derby this weekend, partly to celebrate Sophie's birthday, and partly to mark the end of an era. Next week Sophie ups sticks and moves to pastures new, so it was the last chance to party in Flat 4, in one of the best houses in the Midlands.

I thought I'd give a short architectural tribute to the house, in the form of pictures.

Here we see the garden of Flat 4, note the eclectic mix of paving styles.



This photo gives some feeling of the fine high ceilings and excellent light in the property.



The central staircase is perfectly designed to serve all floors. Note the sturdy wooden staircase.



Finally here we see the grand entrance, with wide stone steps and influences that are probably Georgian, or something. Look, if you're really interested in that kind on thing go and buy a bloody book!



Ah... happy days. I'm gonna miss that place. For all the architecture, of course. :-)
