Phew , I half expected to open that and find that it had been

for some town or city's twee improved pedestrian area with newly laid
cobbles and reproduction Edwardian lampposts till I noticed the 2014

Either a thing looks nice or it doesn't. Why was it okay for Edwardians

make beauty in the age of ugliness deserve praise, not criticism.
