Southerndown Care Home was built in the 1890 and was originally known as "The Dunraven Hotel", but since the late 1940's it has been care home for both the elderly and the blind. It's been abandoned since 2006, and most of the interior decor has been stripped out, however there are still some interesting features. These photographs, taken in May 2012, showcase the building as it stands today.
Inspiration for the framing of the shots came from the 1975 New Topographics exhibition.
Another shot of the friendly Malaysian housekeeper at the Cintra Heritage House. Poor thing, she was recovering from a major personal crisis, but still kept up her smile and friendly demeanor. Despite the friendliness of the staff, I was unhappy to see a couple of European guests rather surly and snappy with the staff here. Yes, and both of the foul tempered guests were ladies.

This is Soho House in Handsworth, Birmingham. Was the home of Matthew Boulton from 1766 to his death in 1809.
It opened to the public as a museum in 1995, it is now a part of the Birmingham Museums & Art Gallery.
I had to sign a form inside, to get permission to take photos inside.
When it was listed as Grade II* listed, it was a Police Hostel (5 - 11 Soho Avenue). Before that it was a hotel.
The enlargement over a long period of an unfinished mid C18 house acquired
in 1766 by Matthew Boulton, whose home this was from 1766 to 1809. In 1789
Samuel and then in 1796 James Wyatt, was being employed. The principal
front (now the garden facade) probably attributable to James Wyatt. Faced
with painted slate in imitation of ashlar work. Two storeys plus attics;
7 bays with giant panelled Ionic pilasters left and right and either side
of the centre bay. Ground floor with central semi-circular porch on Ionic
columns and 6 windows. First floor with a central tripartite window on
a sill band and an attic semi-circular tripartite window both within a
tall arch and 6 first floor windows on a sill band and 6 almost square
attic windows. All windows sashes with glazing bars. Entablature, moulded
cornice and blocking course. Left and right, modern additions. Entrance
hall with scagliola columns and, in the back wall, double doors flanked
by niches. The doors lead into a room with 3 narrow transverse groin vaulted
bays running from mock scagliola iron columns either side of recesses flanking
the fireplace on the left to thin pilasters on the right; the entrance
wall is bowed to match the shallow bow window at the far end of the room.
The groin vaults, which are plastered, are probably carried on an iron frame
or architrave.
This is the Housekeeper's Room at Soho House.

A visit to the National Trust property Plas Newydd on the Isle of Anglesey. The seat of the Marquesses of Anglesey.
Plas Newydd is a country house set in gardens, parkland and surrounding woodland on the north bank of the Menai Strait, in Llanddaniel Fab, near Llanfairpwllgwyngyll, Anglesey, Wales. The current building has its origins in 1470, and evolved over the centuries to become one of Anglesey's principal residences. Owned successively by Griffiths, Baylys and Pagets, it became the country seat of the Marquesses of Anglesey, and the core of a large agricultural estate. The house and grounds, with views over the strait and Snowdonia, are open to the public, having been owned by the National Trust since 1976.
From its earliest known resident in 1470, Plas Newydd passed by inheritance and marriage through 500 years of a family's increasing concentration of wealth, titles and estates, until the 7th Marquess of Anglesey presented it to the National Trust, so that the house and grounds could be opened to the public.
Plas Newydd is a Grade I listed building.
A look around the inside of the house.
The Whistler Dining Room. Mural created for the 6th Marquess in the 1930s in what had previously been housekeepers' and footmen's rooms.
Was hard to get this mural all in one go, was people in the way, and a guide was explaining what parts of the mural meant, so did best I could while I was in there. The carpet was rolled up a bit. So wasn't any dining room furniture in there at the time.
Was painted in sections on canvas from 1936 to 1937. Is a fantasy landscape background inspired by the mountains of Snowdonia. But draws on memories of Mediterranean holidays, featuring Venetian gondola and numerous classical and baroque buildings seen in Italy and Austria.
The broken pediment and hand painted effect - specially created by our in house artist ensure that this four door housekeeper's cupboard maintains a gravitas that few furniture makers can lay claim to.
Dark colours and contemporary knobs ensure that this design remains clean and sharp but keeps its timeless appeal.
The distressing softens the look of this Chalon piece.

Avon Books 503, 1953

"He wanted to earn a college degree – but she wanted passionate love!"
You have to imagine all the trouble this lady went through to try to get one of these pins for herself. I really was surprised when she walked up to me and pulled out this note and just handed it to me. She obviously had this note written in advance and kept it handy in case she saw me. And to think of how she had to ask someone to help her write this note. All for some little balloon pin that is barely more than a trinket to to many at home but here they are like gold coins.
