Going to the inevitable


If you have a slightly better memory than me you may faintly recall a post about the old Blundell Street school and its predicament, (here it is). It's had its share of vandalism over the years. The Council is at loggerheads with the owner over a new development, there had been talk of compulsory purchase and well, it's all so sadly familiar. So it was really no great surprise to wake up on Sunday morning to news that this place had been ravaged by a huge fire, no surprise at all; what took them so long?. 



There's some neat drone footage from Octovision Media.:

  2. Even that burned-out shell is prettier than anything some developer can build. I understand your cynicism. Yeah, what took them so long?
