Lift up your eyes 20

Con tinuing yesterdays theme of curves, this solicitors office on the corner of St. Saviourgate and the junction of Colliergate and Whip Ma Whop Ma Gate has a curved end. I am not sure if the curves date back to the days of horse and cart and tight junctions where the curve helped the passage of the horse and cart around the corner. Notice how the curve of the wall is also reflected in the curve of the step into the doorway of the building.
