Pritchard's Rootes Group garage

Sorry it was a very grey Sunday evening.
The old Pritchard's Rootes Group garage was a lovely surprise as I drove home through Llandridnod Wells. It's being converted into separate shop and leisure (bar/café) units from the looks of it, but retains those wonderful signs, and a selection of increasingly antique petrol pumps which appear (from the price sign) to still be vaguely in use. (Note especially the one a car's length in front of that Fiesta. Yes, that pole with a dial on top is a petrol pump.)
This is just along the road from another wonderful curved-fronted pre-Deco building, "Tom Norton's", the stonework of which announces his involvement in cycles, motors, and aircraft, and now houses the National Cycle Museum. A return visit on a non-Sunday is definitely called for.
