And when has it been so badly neglected that it should be razed to the ground and rebuilt?<br /><br />Since probably none of us have seen the inside of the Red Lion Brewery before demolition and there don't seem to be any interior photos around, there is no right answer in this case. But _in general_ I would vote for renovation and re-purposing, not demolition.Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067098918914268503.post-66654160081802494222013-09-15T02:15:30.478+10:002013-09-15T02:15:30.478+10:00Hello Hels, What an amazing brewery that must hav...Hello Hels, What an amazing brewery that must have been, with so many fine architectural details. It's too bad it had to be sacrificed, even for the Festival of Britain. <br /><br />I had missed your earlier post on the festival; you probably are familiar with the Noel Coward's satirical song, Don't Make Fun of the Festival.<br /><br />--Road to Parnassus<br /><br />P.S. I have been introduced to so much beauty through your blog, from red-painted lion carvings to more traditional art to the beauty inherent in noble thoughts and actions that you feature so frequently. --JimParnassushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08958901307538141468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067098918914268503.post-33386951565820447592013-09-15T00:38:39.074+10:002013-09-15T00:38:39.074+10:00saurabh kumar

Most commenters are very specific in their corrections or suggestions eg " Waddesdon Manor might have had French looking architecture, but I think you will find that the landscaping was much more in the English taste".<br /><br />At least then I can either change the views expressed in the post, or I can marsall evidence to support my original position. Sometimes errors can actually produce a useful dialogue.<br /><br />But "extremely ugly layout" is not very helpful.Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067098918914268503.post-38054726010807412912013-09-14T15:02:04.692+10:002013-09-14T15:02:04.692+10:00Take no notice, Braun's blog is a bit of a dog...Take no notice, Braun's blog is a bit of a dogs breakfast, more the disparate peripatetic ramblings of someone who has too high an opinion of himself.Don001https://www.blogger.com/profile/01616610232620567907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067098918914268503.post-4100027748918047212013-09-14T11:30:49.405+10:002013-09-14T11:30:49.405+10:00v Braun
