‘Cooling towers are some of the most majestic structures in Britain – form and function in perfect harmony. Even as they become redundant, those that remain deserve to be preserved as much as any church or castle’

@C20Society @BristolLive @BristolCivicSoc @BBCBristol @BBCRB @bristol247 We all seem to be ranting and raving on a daily basis these days… have these developers got supreme power over everything? I don’t think anyone has a voice anymore… except for the noble efforts of @C20Society

NEWS // C20 has objected to demolition of the former Bristol Debenhams (originally Jones & Co), proposed to be replaced by a 28 storey tower.

Designed by architects Healing & Overbury (1952-54), this fine mid-century modern building has ample potential for conversion and re-use.

@tomdyckhoff It just looks like a terrible far right platform with all the blackness and the big brutal X … Twitter, with it’s gentle blueness was so calm and welcoming

There are only 29 cooling towers left of over 200. Are @HistoricEngland really going to let them all disappear? Not save even one as a record of a building type that used to define the topography of much of England?

@cath_slessor makes the case superbly.

@scottygb He’s another BBC presenter that’s been demoted and so many others have gone. All punished for having their own opinions…

Soho has become idiotic. Truly horrible now. The illuminated disco tuktuks were the last straw.
