An industrial tower is set to be demolished overnight after it was stripped of its conservation listing.
The 183ft Brutalist-style concrete tower sits near the South Bank coke oven battery on the former Redcar SSI steelworks site,Campaigners against the destruction had argued it was a monument to Teesside's industrial past. He added: "I have asked [developers] to salvage what is possible from the original Dorman Long lettering on the side of the tower and to recreate a replica of the lettering to be used close to the site."
Good start for an author who is able to be coerced into de-listing to allow development. Perhaps the parliament building could be next and get rid of a lot of those useless ministers.
Shame
Wonder how long it takes for a company linked to a minister comes in and builds something on the site.
How can you remove the status of a listed building? Is it no longer historic anymore.
It's a monument to the working class people's history. Of course the Tories want to tear it down.
Another bastion of our magnificent heritage consigned to the dustbin of history, I hope some activists start squatting in it
