@MeghansMole Never mind ugliest Royal Wedding it was the worst wedding I have ever been to, and I’ve been to a few! From her badly fitting dress to the ‘spectacle’ of it all, it was a complete waste of money. Imagine having to sit through it all, they should all have been given medals!

I don’t know Rochester, but if that is it’s heritage I will be in no hurry to go there!

@Farnsworth100 @createstreets @brunotonelli @JuliaUdall @ImaginePlaces @daisyldixon @marianna_jano Was recommended for refusal by officers, but approved by the planning committee on public benefit grounds. Unusual case and clearly problematic in terms of design.

@SeasideFerry In the early 1950s the train would surely have been steam - as they were in 1964 when I first visited Ryde?

A very worthwhile campaign!

[The London Gasketeers @LondonGasketeer]

We’re been incredibly active on Instagram. Now’s the time to get active on Twitter. @citywestminster want to rip out their 275 authentic, historic working gaslamps to replace them with reproduction lanterns powered by LED. Follow @LondonGasketeer and help us to stop this.

@VillaGaiety @frankmatchamsoc Ok - where is it? It’s apparently on an island - is it Wight or Man?

Surely something can be done about bthdse two fine buildings. Where is Coventry’s Enforcement Team?

[SAVE Britain's Heritage @SAVEtoReuse]

The site also comprises a lodge house (second photo) built at the same time. Both buildings and the wider site have been disused for many years and are in a very poor condition. Homes England aimed to start redevelopment in 2020 but there has since been little progress.
