This is a picture of Wally's Delicatessen, who have been situated in the Royal arcade for 60 years. The Royal arcade is also one of the oldest arcades in Cardiff built in 1858 with a view to connect the Hayes to St Mary's street while also increasing the number of shops at the time. Though many of the shops have changed owners, the overall look of the arcade itself has changed very little since then. This is one of the picture's we took with our first roll of film inspiring this project.
