I haven't really noticed this before, but this old house in Rua J P Samora, up on the old town hill, has been very nicely restored. https://postimages.org/" rel="nofollow">  A bit further along, this old doorway through the castle wall has been uncovered. Above it atop the wall is the Royal Thai Orchid restaurant. https://postimages.org/" rel="nofollow">  ------------- Albufeira Resident www.algarvebus.info public transport information for the Algarve |

Another building now being repaired and restored is the big one opposite Tunes bar. I did not see any sign of what it is to be used for. https://postimages.org/" rel="nofollow">  ------------- Albufeira Resident www.algarvebus.info public transport information for the Algarve |

Its the one next to it is also being worked on as well, because the other day whilst looking at the webcam there was a workman climbing on its roof and clearing some debris away. Any ideas Cubsur. ------------- suggy |

This was bought about five years ago ... looking from the beach the roof was propped up at the back ... possibly another bar... or b&b ... one thing that always interested me is that the gate at the left hand side is actually a tiny street .. ------------- Pyrman |

I did get a peep through the gate a few months ago and there was a car parked there. I have never seen them open though. If I remember on Saturday I will try to get a closer look at both. I remember that through the doors of the left hand building there was a very grand staircase to be seen. None of the pictures albums I have shed any light as to their former purpose. Perhaps I shall find out. ------------- Albufeira Resident www.algarvebus.info public transport information for the Algarve |
