This large, red brick building in the centre of Leamington Spa has some classical features but is easily missed - on a fairly busy road and with cars parked in front.
It was originally called The Bath Assembly (it is only a short walk from the Pump Rooms and Spa Baths) and was built in the Art Deco style in 1926.
The real beauty of the fan-shaped window can be appreciated from the inside.
Yesterday a Vintage Fair was being held there which provided a chance to see the very stylish interior. Now lavishly decorated in purple and silver, I was not surprised to read that it was refurbished in 2008 at a cost of several million pounds by Lawrence Llewelyn-Bowen.
It has three bars, one on the balcony with a great view down into the hall, which is now a venue for concerts, comedy nights and a burlesque club.
And what did you buy?
