It was then in use as a car park. What a tragedy it was not repaired! The following year I watched them pulling it down & it did not come down easily so were the marked rivets just an excuse?<br /><br />Richard SymondsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8914276256646518799.post-69063696518468610222017-04-07T19:48:37.211+01:002017-04-07T19:48:37.211+01:00Dog mess is such a contentious issue.

The Roof metalwork is looking better and better. Just need some fine weather now to get the cobelling done on top of the building and the roof trusses can be fitted. Any idea how you are going to move the parts up to Broadway? I would suggest moving them by rail but you are the experts not me. Anyway, a hearty well done on the project so far.
