  • An original Victorian shopping arcade in the seaside resort town of Great Yarmouth on the English east coast. Daylight floods in through overhead skylight roof glass  as shoppers walk past local ladies fashion displays seen behind beautiful curved windows, in the style of late 19th century.

  • Seen from the Barmouth Bridge is Coes-Faen Spa Lodge, a former Victorian residence on the Mawddach estuary, on 13th September 2018, in Barmouth, Gwynedd, Wales.

  • A detail of an ornate Victorian brass letter box plate. Seen in close-up, the single and plural word 'Letters' is printed in upper-case capitals on the flap that one must lift to insert postal mail from the outside of this heavy, glossy black doors in the seaside town of Lowestoft in Suffolk, England. The brass plate sits in its fitted slot and has been carefully polished these last decades to ensure it still looks as handsome as it might have some time in the Victorian era when brass door knockers and other elaborate fittings were fixed to houses, showing true quality craftsmanship - a factor largely ignored in the mass-produced products of today.

  • Victorian buildings and closed shops and resturants on The Minories, Whitechapel on 16th April 2020 in London, United Kingdom. Normally crowded with people, London is like a ghost town as workers stay home under lockdown during the Coronavirus pandemic. The Minories area was a papal peculiar outside the jurisdiction of the English bishops. The abbey was dissolved in 1539 when the property passed to the Crown. The chapel of the former abbey became the Church of Holy Trinity, Minories, and other buildings were used as an armoury and later as a workhouse. In 1686, the area became part of the Liberties of the Tower of London. The Minories area historically hosted a large Jewish community. Minories Holy Trinity was abolished as a civil parish in 1895 and absorbed into the parish of Whitechapel.

  • A detail of a Victorian house gable in the Essex seaside town of Frinton-on-Sea. Ornate blue painted woodwork looks fresh and clean despite it being 100 years old. The name of the property reads as Essex House and the date of its construction as 1896. A gable is the generally triangular portion of a wall between the edges of a sloping roof. The shape of the gable and how it is detailed depends on the structural system used (which is often related to climate and availability of materials) and aesthetic concerns. Thus the type of roof enclosing the volume dictates the shape of the gable. A gable wall or gable end more commonly refers to the entire wall, including the gable and the wall below it.

  • The words Good as Gold are written on the top of a Victorian building in Southwark, south London. With blue sky and clouds above, we see an urban street message sprayed on the former warehouse near Waterloo. “Good as gold” or “as good as gold” are common English expressions meaning something is genuine or reliable. Referring to people, particularly children, they usually mean well behaved. “Good as gold” is one of numerous figures of speech involving gold as a desirable standard of some kind. The expression is a simile, an analogy used to describe something by comparing it to something else. The word “gold” itself is one of the oldest words in the English language.

  • As traffic zooms past, the art installation called 'House' stands alone on a now-empty and house-less East London street. Oddly, the contours of the structure have been inverted to reveal an inside-out version of the original building. It is a concrete cast of the inside of an entire Victorian terraced house completed in autumn 1993 and exhibited at the location of the original property — 193 Grove Road — in East London (all the houses in the street had earlier been knocked down by the council). Created by the artist Rachel Whiteread CBE (born 1963) this is her best-known sculpture. It won her the Turner Prize (the first woman to do so) for best young British artist in 1993. Here we see 'House' next to a lamp post which throws down it's light on a winter evening, before it was controversially demolished by the council in January 1994.

  • In the late afternoon on a warm summer's day, drinkers enjoy a pint or two outside The Phoenix pub at Denmark Hill station, Camberwell, South London. Seated at tables and on benches, the friends and colleagues relax in the warm sunshine outside this Victorian station, built in 1865. Its design is in the Italianate style, with an extremely decorative frontage. After a fire in 1980 the building was renovated and restored. The project included the addition of the public house, initially called the Phoenix and Firkin to commemorate the fire, then called O'Neills and now known as the Phoenix. A Civic Trust award was given to the building in 1986.

  • A half-bricked up and painted Victorian terraced house window. With the main door to this old period home painted a vibrant green, one half of the window features the same colour while in the middle section, bricks have replaced a pane of glass, in the manner that Georgian property owners doid when faced by government window taxes - penalising those with glass window and a solitary beer can rests on the sill of the right window.

  • It is late morning and a lady has emerged from her bead and breakfast (B+B)  in Paignton, Devon. Sunlight is quite high in the sky and the shadows of a vine that is growing across the roof of the building's terrace, is seen on the wall behind the woman. She is seated reading a magazine in a garden chair and is surrounded by colourful flowers in their prime. Well-painted original victorian railings that act as a sort of ballustrade are in front of the female. In the window is a scene of typical seaside Englishness. Serviettes are splayed out on a table along with breakfast or dinner items awaiting guests at the next meal.

  • Monument to the famous Victorian bare-knuckle boxer, Thomas Sayers with a life sized statue of his much-loved dog Lion, keeping guard over his masters grave in Highgate Cemetery, , 25th May, 2005, Highgate Cemetery, London, United Kingdom. The funeral of Thomas Sayers, the last of the bare-knuckle prizefighters, was sure to attract crowds. He had been hugely popular in his lifetime, having vanquished many a more formidable-looking opponent in a career lasting over ten years.  The dog, with a band of crape around his neck, behaved impeccably. Not so the other spectators at the cemetery, who danced and screamed, yelled and hooted, whistled and shrieked, like demons.... As many as 10,000 turned up for the burial, rushing ahead to the top of the hill where it was to take place, swarming into the trees for the view.
