The Strand in Talgarth

I noticed in the estate agent's window that The Strand bookshop and cafe in Talgarth is now for sale. It's been an outlier of the Hay bookshops for many years, on a corner just by the road that leads up to the old Talgarth Hospital and Pwll-yr-Urach nature reserve.
What I hadn't realised, looking at the building from street level, is that the roof is flat, and done out in decking, so you can stand up there and look out over the roofs of Talgarth as if from the prow of a ship.
