Last Wednesday I posted the photograph above (TOP) and said that the building getting a facelift was house number 17. The question was: What is the name of the street?Answer: Bedford Street.
The building is No.17 which has had a variety of uses and was for a while a branch of YMCA / Young Women's Christian Association.
This week’s winner is Sue Handley. First win for Sue.
The winner was drawn from hat by professional photographer Fred Burns, Phoenix Studio, 44 Bedford Street, tel (01745) 356900. Fred does a lot of weddings, family portraits and passports. Last year in Ruthin he had an exhibition titled ‘Gothic Extravaganza’ featuring models in morbid and mysterious Goth fashions.
