This is the current library in Knowle West, built in the 1960s. Bristol City Council is now proposing a ‘new modern’ building for it. I think heritage should be preserved.

Looking forward to this @C20Society

Send your objections in to the planning application fast - we risk losing our iconic dome as well as our music venue.

List the Oasis Leisure Centre @DCMS @NadineDorries The property developer are just pushing for the easiest, cheapest route for them. But they'd save the Oasis regardless. They have plans drawn up incase it's listed. Approve the listing and let's get our iconic Oasis back open.

DCMS, please approve the listing our iconic Oasis - it's not the Oasis without its famous dome - the last building of its type left! It must be listed and it must remain. Its our landmark! @DCMS @NadineDorries @swindonadver @AdverNewsAT @swindonlink @C20Society @coco_whittaker
