About our heritage passions run deep. Innuendos abound around this site but it needs to be said that the proof seems to be in the pudding. The idea that 'the developer knows best' leaves all kind of ground for shonky politics – even too many opportunities for inappropriate bureaucratic activity. BUT, isn't there always a 'but', that's what happens when heritage gets in the way of development and a truck load of other people's money.
We know that the assumption you speak of is 24ct bullshit. If they knew something, anything, then the site would be earning the a modest profit. Who knows who has lost what on this spot all for the promise of a lot of money that wasn't there to be made. One day?
