Been trying to find diamond shaped timber - no joy so far. Any suggestions where I can get something like this?

@MarcusNovius Agreed - The consultation's wording was heavily loaded towards the developers too - "do you want a cinema ?" "Ooh yes please" said most people. The question "Do you want £68m debt that comes with said cinema" didn't make the final draft so on paper, most are is in favour.

@RTWCS I have sent an email of support for listing this building to Heritage England - hopefully that will help in their decision to save it.

Thread Two months ago, the Civic Society indicated to the developers how they could retain the Friendly Societies Hall (FSH) while still meeting the cinema operator’s requirements for three screens & an associated bar area, simply by moving them closer to the Calverley Precinct

@bmay Sadly so many are going to experience the stupidity of their own vote for a one policy party with no answers, and a myriad of offshore tax avoiding sponsors.

I am in favour of Reform winning councils so everyone sees how utterly awful they are when they have to actually run things instead of just painting roundabouts and droning on about a full English.

A question: what are the things you wish there was a word for? And have you come up with your own word to fill that gap?

The Friendly Society Hall was designed by William Barnsley Hughes when he was apparently only 25 years old. An accomplished piece of Victorian eclectic design which deserves conservation as a building, not just as a façade … Thanks Sarah Mott : Photographer #tunbridgewells
