“Old buildings always hide a very interesting history. And this one is no exception”.
He looked at the large, brick-laden building that stood imposing in front of him. You probably wouldn’t even notice it had it not been for the huge glass windows that caught your eye.
“If we don’t care about our past, we cannot hope for the future,” she said. “It doesn’t look like much, but it has definitely shaped this town”.

So much history is caught up in the buildings around us – the Notre Dame fire recently reminded us how valuable they are, even if not religious.
