New Plans for Cannon Street Baptist church
Plans have been given the go ahead for conversion of the old Cannon Street Baptist church building to apartments despite opposition from The Victorian Society.
Who are the Victorian Society?
I'm a little puzzled by their reasoning here:
Quote:
However, the Victorian Society said that the proposals would fundamentally harm the special character of the church and added: “There would be near-complete loss of the interior and serious damage to the external appearance of the building.”

I remember the interior being completely restructured during my life time so it's hardly original is it?
