Demolition

This is more a diary entry for me. For as long as I can remember there used to be swimming baths here in Lamorbey, Sidcup, with a facade that I thought was listed. It wasn't a particularly pretty building but it had a lot of history. A couple of years ago the rear of the building was taken down and there was a dispute about the remaining frontage. I am totally shocked that it has finally fallen down or been demolished and flats are apparently destined for the site. I suppose change is good but it's just taken away some familiarity from the street I've always known.
Sad that so few of these are left now.

Always feels a bit disconcerting when years of memories become rubble.

How sad for you that a special memory is being destroyed by “progress” I bet you will be glad you have this photo of it someday.

This seems to be happening a lot. It feels sad to lose a piece of history and familiarity, doesn't it?

Sad to see memories go away.
