I was going to say Royal Pavillion Brighton but was thrown by the minarets which made think it was a mosque thrown up recently in a Northern mill town. Very clever
Thats what I thought too. And I recall Andy asking about the cost / funding of building the mosques and thought
Looks a bit tooooo grand for a northern mill town though.....
Would make a great curry emporium though...
Evidently not....

"The Royal Pavilion is a former royal residence located in Brighton, England. It was built in three campaigns, beginning in 1787, as a seaside retreat for George, Prince of Wales, from 1811 Prince Regent. It is often referred to as the Brighton Pavilion. It is built in the Indo-Saracenic style prevalent in India for most of the 19th century, with the most extravagant chinoiserie interiors ever executed in the British Isles."

When I get a chance next year I might visit Brighton and have a look at it. It kind of looks impressive....
Unlike the rest of Brighton which get's tackier by the year
Yep thats true enough!Unlike the rest of Brighton which get's tackier by the year
I used to go to Brighton a lot as a kid...but then there were two piers and lots of old style penny arcade machines.
Brighton is still worth a visit just to wander along 'The Lanes' ...and of course visit the Royal Pavilion.
A visit to Brighton always reminds me of the Graham Green novel Brighton Rock which also depicts it as being rather seedy.
And of course Quadrophenia...
Yep...that too. I well remember the battles that took place between the Mods and Rockers at the timeAnd of course Quadrophenia...
