This branch of B&Q closed down in January 2007, and has recently been used by the Bournemouth Family Church, whose premises at SZ0991 : Bournemouth: former parish church of St. Swithun were unavailable to them at the time of this picture because of building work. They returned to St. Swithun's a few months later.

The photo is taken from the upper deck of the car park of SZ0991 : Bournemouth: ASDA’s St Paul’s Road branch.

UPDATE 10 December 2008 – I drove past this building today and discovered that it is in its final stages of demolition. I drive past it every day on the way to work and traffic is usually at snail's pace alongside, so I'm surprised I didn't notice it yesterday. Perhaps it was all done this morning, before 9am!
