Architecture in Bath (4) - 21 August 2014

For all the pleasure I get from finding interesting buildings, I get more pleasure and some frustration when trying to find out more about what I have seen. This building in James Street West, Bath is absolutely fascinating and was the old Labour Exchange. Until recently, it housed two charities, The Woodworks and The Genesis Trust. The building shows extensive shrapnel damage, visible in this photograph and provided an interesting resonance with two others I have seen this year in Rouen and Jerusalem.
