After using the privy, I took this and the other photo, hoping I'd see something "painterly" about it. This is about as close as I got. Things would improve as I ventured further into the Faire, but it was unbelievably crowded.

The Leeds Corn Exchange is a Victorian building in Leeds, West Yorkshire, England, which was designed by Cuthbert Brodrick and completed in 1864. It currently houses a restaurant, a clothing boutique and a jewellery shop.
Designed by Cuthbert Brodrick, a young Hull architect best known for Leeds Town Hall, this Grade I listed structure was completed in 1864. Leeds Corn Exchange is now just one of three Corn Exchanges in the country which still operates in its traditional capacity as a centre for trade, albeit no longer for trading in corn.
After the closure of the Corn Exchange, its condition deteriorated to such a degree that the building itself and the surrounding land became one of Leeds' most run down areas. Early proposals for the regeneration for this site had included turning the Corn Exchange into a concert hall similar to the Royal Albert Hall.
1980s conversion into a shopping centre
In 1985, Speciality Shops plc won the contract to re-develop the building as a shopping centre. The refurbishment process designed by Alsop & Lyall was completely restored to its current state, with new staircases to allow shoppers access to the balcony and basement levels. It opened for trade in 1990. Many other old buildings have been restored in this area, now known as The Exchange Quarter.
As well as housing shops such as Ark Clothing, On the wall (poster/photograph) which is now in a new site on Boar Lane, Culture Vulture now situated on Duncan Street and Eva (jewellery), the Leeds Corn Exchange also hosted exhibitions, events such as strut (fashion show) and music events. Most of the shops sold alternate merchandise such as band items like badges, clothes, and studded belts, and the Exchange became a well-known congregation point for alternative people.
In November 2007 it was revealed that the centre (which had been under refubishment for the past year following being taken over by Zurich Financial Services) was to be converted into a food emporium. The plans brought protests from existing independent traders, who were removed from the Corn Exchange, and their customers.
Following a major restoration project, Leeds Corn Exchange re-opened in November 2008 as a boutique shopping destination for creative independent retail enterprises. The entire 13,200-square-foot (1,230 m2) ground level is now occupied by a new restaurant venture, with the upper levels home to a number of retailers.
It is a rare sight nowadays to witness a token exchange. The driver of 59104 'Village of Great Elm', hands over the token to the signalman at Park Junction, Newport, having just completed the single-track journey from Machen with crushed stone destined for West Drayton on the 6A83 service. The strange metal box next to the car is to protect the signal man’s car from youths hurling stones.
Park Junction Signal Box in Newport is a GWR box that dates back to 1885, built by McKenzie & Holland with both lever frame and panel for signalling. There were 100 recorded levers in 1920. This splendid signal box, though somewhat dilapidated, appears to have quite a few of its original features. I am not sure if this little gem has achieved grade II listed status, but according to my research it is scheduled to be decommissioned sometime this year as a result of all signalling in South Wales ultimately being controlled from the South Wales Regional Operations Centre at Cardiff.

Exchange Plaza at 50 Lothian Road, Edinburgh is apparently one of the most iconic buildings in Edinburgh, forming the gateway to the city's prime Exchange District, Edinburgh’s key office location. Lothian Road is home to numerous amenities such as bars, cafes and restaurants. Additionally, the key shopping locations of Princes Street and George Street are a short walk away.
These Carpenter Ants are exchanging food, that much I know. Not sure if they are also exchanging information on where to find it.

Turns out Exchange Street makes for a nice ski slope before the roads have been cleared of snow.

Dorchester Corn Exchange, Dorchester, Dorset.
The Corn Exchange is a Grade II* Listed Building in the centre of Dorchester. The Building is two storeys with walls of Broadmayne brick with Bath and Portland stone dressings and a tile of slate roof over. The building was designed by Benjamin Ferrey (who also designed All Saints’ Church and the old County Hospital in the town) and erected in 1847-48 by the builder Samuel Slade.
The building replaced an earlier town hall of 1792 which stood a little further west with an arched passageway into North Square.
The building originally comprised a corn exchange, assembly hall and council chamber. Later in the 19th century a new market and police station were added to the north.
The clock turret was added to the building in 1864. It is known as ‘Galpin’s Folly’, after Mayor Galpin who partly paid for it and who approved Benjamin Ferrey’s designs for a tower on a slender pillar. There was public concern that the tower would fall off. It hasn’t yet!

As trinta e uma rosas do jardim são suas
E há somente um cravo, que é meu
E se você quisesse um arranjo ou um buquê,
Minha querida, o cravo era...
Seu sorriso é o que preciso
E quanto ao resto, eu juro tanto faz

This photo quilt depicts the history of the Exchange Hotel at 37 King Street by the train station in Georgetown. It represents the timeline of the historic landmark from its construction in 1855 to the demolition in 2017. The hotel and tavern was first owned by the founder of Georgetown, George Kennedy and served travelers and locals for close to150 years. There are plans to convert the original section of the building into homes through the Habitat for Humanity programme. The collage includes photos I have taken over the years as well as original wallpaper and a newspaper article found in the rubble at the site. The work was inspired by my love of quilting, pysanky (Ukrainian egg-decorating) and photography and blends aspects of all three arts, namely story-telling, symmetry and symbolism. The central hearth is seen in many traditional quilting patterns and represents the heart and life of the home. This work is dedicated to my husband Neil who discovered the beauty of Georgetown while working on these tracks as a conductor for CNR 30 years ago when we were looking for a place to raise our family.
