Scaffolding is now going up higher round the new build at the Old Gaol.
The view through to the County Hall scaffolding is no more. It would be good to have an exhibition about what was found in the archaeological dig – particularly for local archaeologists and historians who were not allowed near.
The new building is looking taller and taller; hope it’s not going to be taller than the existing gaol as it’s going to totally change the aspect of the riverside as seen coming across the bridge to a large enough degree with the footprint that its got. Too big; too new; too crowded – and that’s before people and cars arrive!
