🤓When in Leitrim & Roscommon last week there were so many historic buildings, but the character (and amount of) snazzy tiled shopfronts has left me blown away! Two of my faves for #TilesOnTuesday (yes that is a mosaic pint of stout 🍺)
When the light hits a façade in a certain way, suddenly its character changes completely. Was never that fond of the (B1 Listed) Belfast BBC Building- but now appreciate the play of light & shadow on sand coloured brick, which accentuates its verticality & gives #Metropolis vibes

All these gates are so different, but all are so beautiful in their own way. But still have to say the simple black gate steals my ❤️ #IronworkThursday
For #TilesOnTuesday the delicious Castle Buildings designed by Blackwood & Jury, 1905. The #artnouveau faience clad façade has a fluidity that echoes its original use as a silk merchant & drapers. 🐉👀

@TradSkillsNI @ClaudiaKinmont1 @NIAH_Ireland Incredibly beautiful and especially concentrated in this region...as recently featured on @RTENationwide. Laura Earley's fascinating research is published in 'Roscommon's Mosaic Tradition'. That said, there are other instances like the fascia of O'Gealbháin Listowel, for example.

@TradSkillsNI I always love the curved glass windows. I had heard you couldn’t get them now but a shop in a nearby town had theirs broken and they seem to have a new one.
