The Ships Galley Cafe

[Rubex]

The Ships Galley Cafe belongs to the owners of Snetterton Park, where a popular Sunday market has been running for over 25 years. In 2008 plans were put in place to demolish the cafe to make way for 7 new units, 4 of which were set to become car dealerships. I could imagine in its heyday this place would have been thriving; twenty years ago the steel shacks of the market were innovative but people no longer want to be blown about in the wind and rain, so the market has seen a decline in visitors who now favour shopping centres and the internet.











































Thanks for looking,

Rubex

Very unusual place - thats not something you will see everyday - looking at that last picture - would OF been great if they had tables and chairs on the roof(deck) to eat your lunch and drink your tea.
Thanks for sharing - liked that a lot.

I really like this Rubex - the external is so cool!

I noticed with some sense of loss, that the huge toy and model shop has closed it's doors.

Not much left there at all now. Good snaps BTW.
