I was down in London for a day on business this week. I had a breakfast meeting in the morning but having woken up early I had a few hours to kill. I didn’t really fancy hanging around the rather horrible Travelodge I was staying in (I’ve vowed never to book in one again!) so decided to go out for a bit of a wander and do some “street haunting” around Bloomsbury.
Wandering down Grays Road I spotted this rather attractive Modernist / Art Deco building so stopped to take a couple of snaps on my phone.
It’s a simple design with interesting ironwork on the balconies and front door
The Modernist Britain website tells us
Trinity Court is an eight storey apartment block, rectangular in plan, with the shorter sides parallel to the street. The front and rear elevations project slightly at each side giving a Roman ‘I’ footprint to the building. The main elevation features a central entrance with double doors, with decorative tracery in the windows. Above the doors the entrance features a stepped pediment carrying the building name.
and that it
was built between 1934 and 1935 to plans drawn up by the London-based architectural practice of F Taperell and Haase.
My pictures, taken with my phone with the camera playing up (a software problem I resolved later that day) aren’t that great. But there’s some good ones here.

Thought you might be considering moving down to join the Londoners.
More likely to move to Scotland or Ireland 😂 couldn’t afford London!
Me too! But they say house prices will come down … 😉 … but not enough for we ‘northerners’ to move there.
Yes. They’d need to come down a long long way!!!
