Inside the empty Cardiff Bay building left disused for more than 25 years

Standing next to the vast and impressive Cory Building on Bute Street in Cardiff Bay, this smaller three-storey building next door might look like the lesser brother to its impressive sibling, but this building can certainly strongly contribute to the history and the stunning architecture of the area.

Called Custom House, it can also hold its own when it comes to fancy and impressive detailing in proportion to its size - this building oozes features to discover and admire even though it has been empty for more than 25 years.

The property might have been abandoned but that doesn't mean it hasn't been adored by anyone who regularly passes it and takes the time to notice it. The portland stone facade, intricate carvings and fancy iron gates combine to offer a very attractive and historic addition to the street scene.
