Local Market gone!!

<< < (2/3) > >>

strapping young lad:
you dont think its arson do you?

besides

have they said what the cause of the fire is yet?


AND

if the shell is still standing, they may rebuild it

i know its not in the same context but didnt some abbey burn down a few years ago and got rebuilt (one the royals use or something?)

they dont know yet, but rumours being rumours, the fire at the bride shop less than 24 hrs before... I have lived in Ashton for over 20 yrs now and NEVER have we had TWO big fires in less than 24 hrs!!!

There were 90 firefighters on the scene and engines from as far away as Whitfield!! Our own service had been sent home that day for refusing to use some new kit.....

Ironic.... or not..... I am open minded, just hopeful they rebuild at least keeping the outer shell. I know the character wont be there for a long time, but at least some will remain.

Bush Tucker Man:
The same thing has happened in Leeds a couple of time to the market, but it's risen like the proverbial Phoenix.

The Victorian section is the lasrgest single market building in Europe & beautiful inside (some pics on my 'WebShots' - Architecture & Buildings ofLeeds)

It was widely thought that Leeds Council would pull it down entirely, but it was rebuillt (as was the Corn Exchange)

robbie:
See, you doubters out there!!, there is always hope :D

fingers crossed the same happens here

Stormin:
I hope so! :)
