Just on about Accy baths earlier and it got me thinking about various acts of municiple vandalism committed by Hyndburn  Council and previously Accy Church,Ozzy etc.

I rate the demolition of the old Accy Baths as being the greatest of these, although the demolition of the old railway station comes close (strictly speaking, not the council)

They do things indirectly as well; Why is'nt something being done about the Commercial pub at Church and the old warehouse next door, both buildings of immense industrial archaeological significance. How long before they're deemed an unsuitable eyesore and safety risk and pulled down. Not long, I think.

Anybody got other favouites of the councils "faux pas" (Sorry Roy, thats French for cock-up)
