New for old

Leek was once a thriving mill town, but as manufacture has become cheaper 1/2 way round the world we have had to find new usage's for our abandon mills. Some have become homes other have become retail outlets like this one. This one is one of many antique/interior design shops that Leek is now famous for. Another beautiful building, just look how the windows are different on each floor.

  5. Great building. I like the way it 'disapears' into the pavement as it goes up hill!
