I was born and brought up in Rotherham and was therefore fortunate enough to be able to use the beautiful library in Howard Street in the 1970's while at the Art College. What a shame that it was demolished, using the 'new' library on the current Tesco site was never the same.<br />Sometimes I do think that planners have cc a lot to answer for.<br />I no longer live in the area but still mourn the demolishing of a number of town centre buildings for 70's replacements.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06643838642133765372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3199919321583468611.post-11806822150624438412019-04-08T16:09:19.209+01:002019-04-08T16:09:19.209+01:00As this is all about saving the council some money...As this is all about saving the council some money why not make a start a reduce the number of councillors that should save a few bob.

It’s in a central location and an empty building would also be put to a fantastic purpose too. Sadly, being a commercial property, I guess this will never happen. Given yesterday’s news about Boots, I reckon the Town Centre branch is doomed to close too, so another empty building.Rodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17378510848153535922noreply@blogger.com
