    Like the big kid I am, I went on the big wheel when it was there and you should see the state of the back of that row where the famous army stores is/was - there's little yards and gardens with all sorts of stuff in them.

    Default Williamson Square Big Wheel

    Some more pictures from my collection - I took loads of the big wheel during the dark hours, then in the last few days before it was taken down I suddenly realised I hadn't been on it yet so I went for a ride and saw a cracking sunset.

    Great pics, thanks - how did you get up onto the roof?

    This evening I went up onto the roof of the Hanover St car park to see what I could see and was surprised to see that big glass dome on Clayton Square - it's a shame to build something like that but not be able to see it from anywhere! I noticed it from outside the Tesco later but only because I knew it was there.
