Affleck's Palace

This alternative fashion market in Manchester is staunchly non-mainstream, has at least four floors of shops with alternativeness ranging from intriguing to mind-boggling, and it is not unexpected to find in the "rabbit-warren of passages" as someone put it, such things as a stuffed Abominable Snowman, half a Reliant Robin on the wall as interior decor, and, well there a lot of very curious shops there. Interesting. "It's so weird even I don't look out of place" ... Zyra (2000)
