Tragic scenes from Leek as another historic building in the UK goes up in flames - thankfully no one was hurt. Our thoughts are with evacuated families.

📌Weeks ago, the grade-II 'Big Mill' had been nominated by a concerned local for SAVE's 2026 Buildings at Risk register.

✍️SAVE has recommended changes to the National Planning Policy Framework.

This would prioritise the reuse of historic buildings + discourage wasteful knock-it-down-and-rebuild schemes, with stronger emphasis on reuse ♻️

SAVE has long advocated for the many ways to reuse department stores. In 2022, we published Departing Stores, a report on the decline of these high street titans, showing how across the country second lives are being given to these local landmarks.

✍️As we told Greenwich in our letter, "there is insufficient justification for the total loss of a building which, though currently vacant, could be repurposed".

Many of you objected via the Greenwich Council portal and we are delighted to say your voices were heard.📣
