In Cathedral Square there is a giant chessboard and most Sundays you’ll see people playing a game of chess – usually with a small crowd watching the game. The pieces used to be black and white – take a look at this old post of another game I photographed a few months back.
Like what I do? Then shout me a coffee :)

Wonderful Photo of a Fabulous chess set. Wonder about the age and origin of the set?
