Aspers Northampton - Gala Opening
July 2008

Aspers Northampton - View from the middle of the car park.

Circa 5pm on the Gala opening night.

The property is on the site of the former Northampton Auction House on Commercial Street.

The red carpet.

Next door. The King William IV pub.

A more stylish neighbour - The Church Bar & Restaurant.

Beautifully restored. This stained glass is now directly above the bar.

TCS John Huxley supplied the gaming equipment. PST the chairs.

The upstairs Gaming floor was the venue for the party.
The Poker tables had been removed to allow more space.
