Stafford railway station, 2025

A modern railway station with multiple railway tracks in the foreground and a platform with a large concrete building above. There is a footbridge with glass panels, people waiting on the platform, and posters on the walls. Trees and a partly cloudy sky are visible.

A concrete railway station platform with a lift at the centre. Bicycles are parked nearby, and a cyclist with a blue jacket stands beside one. Signs include “NO CYCLING.” Railway tracks and another platform are visible through the yellow-tinted windows.

A close-up view of a wall covered with small square greyish-blue tiles. The tiles have a slightly rough, textured surface, and some areas on the left show discolouration or staining in a brownish tone. The overall pattern appears grid-like and repetitive.

Two people walk away down a long, enclosed pedestrian walkway with frosted windows and blue steel beams. The corridor is brightly lit, with a dark floor, yellow safety lines, and a sign above pointing to “Lifts”.

A blue door set into a concrete wall is partially blocked by an overhead ramp. A yellow warning sign and a no smoking sign are visible on the door. A propped-up yellow platform and a sign with an upward arrow and text are also seen nearby.

Frosted glass wall with vertical panels and blue triangular metal supports. A small green emergency exit sign with a running figure and arrow is mounted on the white wall below. The wooden ceiling is partially visible at the top.

A modern railway station platform with a concrete staircase in the centre, a green and white train stopped in the background, and a person standing near the train doors. Overhead lights and signage are visible under the wooden roof.

Three tall, narrow windows with frosted glass let in diffused light, surrounded by wooden panelling. The surrounding room is dark, highlighting the bright, vertical rectangles of the illuminated window panes.

A narrow metal walkway with a blue door at the end, bordered by yellow and black hazard stripes above. The walkway is flanked by concrete and railings with orange handrails, located inside a car park with some daylight visible outside.

A modern railway station with concrete and glass architecture, featuring a glass-enclosed pedestrian bridge above railway tracks, platforms below with people and bicycles, and a square tower structure in the background under a partly cloudy sky.

Manchester Palace car fortress, 2025

A multi-storey car park with brown, corrugated metal panels and concrete floors. The lower level features brickwork, metal vents, and small windows. Vertical and horizontal lines create a grid-like, repetitive architectural pattern. No cars are visible.

A tall, narrow concrete stairwell with vertical grooves and tall windows stands next to a multi-storey car park. A yellow “Car Park Exit Only” sign is mounted on the wall. The sky is overcast and part of a red brick building is visible.

I can only imagine the name refers to the palatial nature of this car park, and not the Palace Theatre next door.
