    Great Vlog, Stephen. Wouldn't' like to be living or staying down wind of the demolition with all that dust blowing about and getting in the house. Shame they couldn't pay for the fire brigade to dampen things down. I remember you remarking on the lack of dust at the demolition of the New Hacketts due to the amount of water used to douse the fire. Ok, no fire here, but the dust from this demolition must be horrendous for nearby residents, hotels and B & Bs despite the 'misters'.

    I hope it's not too modern like the black Spyglass one near the tower, I hate to be an old grumble but I really dont like that right next to the gorgeous art deco woolworths building, I'd prefer to have kept the art deco style up along the front in traditional Blackpool splendour. I do like modern too but save that for behind with all the lovely new developments xx

Looks like they have there work cut out for them at the site, will St Chad's road be renamed or will it stay for posterity? I enjoyed watching.

      I agree - I said the other day Northern seaside towns have been devalued by a lack of investment - go to places like Bournemouth and Poole and Eastbourne you will see investment that brings in holiday makers that brings in money. Not always welcomed getting rid of the old buildings but there is no doubt that shiny new plate glass trumps tired redbrick in need of repair
