Our very own Ladywell Baths, subject of a recent petition, was namechecked in this article in Sunday's Guardian.
The article says - Also lined up in this poolside beauty contest is Ladywell Baths in Lewisham, south London. Last year the badly neglected site appeared in the Victorian Society’s top 10 of England and Wales’s most endangered buildings. Christopher Costelloe, director of the society, said then “What was once a hub of the community deserves better than lying empty, half obscured by trees.”
The public eagerly awaits news from the Council on the 'expression of interest' process which seeks to establish who might be interested in redevelopment of the site and what sorts of projects are being contemplated including, importantly, the element of community use/access involved in each.
