Urban exploration - Debenhams in Canterbury, Kent

A look at the old Debenhams department store in Canterbury, Kent.

Debenhams ceased trading on the high street in May 2021 after 243 years of operation. You can sometimes still find ghost signs and somewhat intact storefronts around the UK where the shop units have not been occupied by a new business.

Heritage buses and coaches in Hunstanton

A look at some heritage buses and coaches in Hunstanton.

While walking around Hunstanton we spotted several old buses and coaches parked up at the bus depot.

They were very interesting to see.

The vehicles were on the 'Geoff Hanson Memorial Run' - an annual event in honour of local transport enthusiast Geoff Hanson. You can read more about the Geoff Hanson Memorial Run on the East Norfolk Bus Blog.
