Press release: ‘Stop the Rot’: SAVE calls for urgent action to revive and regenerate historic buildings at Grimsby docks and steps back from legal challenge

Press release: ‘Stop the Rot’: SAVE calls for urgent action to revive and regenerate historic buildings at Grimsby docks and steps back from legal challenge



"Marcus Binney, President of SAVE Britain’s Heritage says, “Visiting the docks last week we were astonished to find large gaping holes in the roof of the Ice Factory.  Associated British Ports claim they take their architectural heritage seriously, yet nothing appears to have been done to stop rain pouring in through the roof.  This constitutes the most callous neglect of an outstanding listed building we have seen in years”."

I wondered what this brick building was used for when I saw that it was to be demolished.

Fund-raising by SAVE to fight the demolition of historic buildings on Grimsby Docks

https://www.facebook.com/groups/NELDF/permalink/908290405965801/

"I have been intouch with SAVE and asked what we can do. They say that they need help with their re appeal as it will cost money to go back to court and to keep forwarding their press release, the Link below.

If you can not donate to the cause but strongly disagree with the decision to knock these buildings down, please keep sharing the press release far and wide to help gain attention.
