Georgian Architecture

Built in 1723 by the architect Benjamin Holloway for the Duke of Chandos, it was then called Chandos Street and is a superb example of Georgian architecture. At 11 Castle Street is the Bridgwater Arts Centre which was the first Arts Centre in Great Britain, set up in 1946 with help from the Arts Council. (mid image with small blue plaque) See Pip,,

Hi Roger
I like this picture very much!
It is a very different and exciting composition.
Apart from the poor brickwork (which is obviously of the time) it could be any street of these 'new build' houses which keep popping up!
Fantastic colours too
Best Wishes, (slightly late) HWW,, and stay safe!!
