Now rebuilt, the fine Crescent in Buxton is now exactly as it was - even the urns on the wall survive.

Unfortunately it's not on the DVLA list as currently taxed.

Intact - surprisingly - though I'm pretty sure they are all one piece. Attached is a tiny section from a higher-resolution photograph - click the image to get an even higher-resolution copy. Interestingly, I've just compared the image from a camera and an iPhone.....
