Even though I constantly tell people to look up, I didn’t really notice these buildings until recently.
And I’d like to say congratulations to my lovely sister, who gets married today, and welcome to the family to my lovely new bro-in-law :)

Interesting building! Nice photos.
Love the seahorses!
It’s a beautiful building with some fine carvings. Those seahorses certainly get around. I wish I could tell you more about the building but I just don’t know anything.

Explanation for Seahorses = Supporters. .
They are also in Newcastle United FC Coat of Arms.
Here comes some useless information.
Seahorses, visit http://www.newcastle.gov.uk/core.nsf/a/lmcoatofarms - they are on the coat of arms and are classed as ’supporters’ which is why they are incorporated in NUFC Coat of Arms.
Wiki says it all about NUFC.
Lovely details on the buildings.
