This is a very lovely piece by Daniel Gray (from a new book he has collaborated on) whose work has been appreciated on here by others before, I think.
I pondered putting it in the Scottish Fitba thread but decided it's theme is universal and deserves a thread of it's own ;
"What corners they are to turn, your visit stacked with a double-joy: that rush of a first glimpse, and then these grounds’ own unique beauty. In their company, a normal streetscape becomes treasured and surreal. A street’s name has so much more meaning. They enrich the tarmac as nothing else can."
