'The Castle"
Like many former pubs built to serve a neighbourhood, 'The Castle' closed and was converted into apartments. It had been a friendly, vibrant sort of place where people would nod and greet you without your having to serve an apprenticeship of several months before being accepted. It would often be full and seldom dependent on just a few patrons. But things changed. A new road bisected the street 'The Castle' was in and it was less easy to get to it. Pub beer increased in price whilst supermarket bargains competed for the business. Social habits changed. Residential values increased relative to other real estate. Smoking in pubs was banned. A British institution was lost to many neighbourhoods and communities. Do they miss it? Probably not.
Photographed using an Optomax 35mm f/2.8 M42 lens. Not the crispest of optics. Lightroom was used to put in many adjustments.
