We saw many interesting buildings on our Ireland trip. Any ideas where and what this one is?

Yes, well done SDQ.
We thought it had been very well done and well worth a visit. Lots of people there so it is good for the regeneration of Belfast.
The last photo is where the Titanic was launched in 1911. It was fitted out after this and sailed around to Southampton a year later for the fateful voyage.

Anybody know where this unusual building is? I checked and there are a few Working Men's Conservative clubs in the UK, but I had never seen one before.

Yes that's right Steve. Here's a pic of more of the building for anyone who's interested.

I've never seen anything like that in N Wales so I'll have a wild guess at the  Fish shack Aldeburgh

Well done Hugo, that was quick!
This is a pic of the lovely Moot Hall that you can see in the distance on the original photo. I have brought my mum for her birthday treat and this is the view from her room.
I should have added that it is pouring down with rain this morning so hoping it will improve.
My sister is staying in Llandudno for a couple of days so I hope it is better in 3 Towns Land!

I must admit that I didn't have a clue where it was but put the details from the sign in Google and that  Fish shack at  Aldeburgh came out.   Hope that you and your Mum enjoy the treat.   It's rained here this afternoon and heavier rain is forecast for tomorrow.

I thought that you were looking in a shop window but the shadows could be from something like the London Eye so that's my wild guess.
