RED COW PULLED DOWN YIPEE

[weasel]

Just watched the demolition men as they finished pulling the Red Cow in Pen y Bryn down…
They told me they had to dispose of hundreds of syringes….
Lets hope the druggy scum who lurked there move on to somewhere else…
How about they have a place adjoining the new prison….

Another 200 year old chunk of Wrexham’s history disappears under the bulldozers.

There should be a zero tolerance policy re drugs!!

YIPPEE???? So you are one of the people who like the history of Wrexham being destroyed?????

Why not raze every building in Wrexham that was not built in the past 20 years to satisfy the greed
and idiocy of many local planning decisions. Why indeed not let the space provided be used for
another Prison…. or may be a large Gypsy encampment…. or maybe .. a base for fracking.

Yipppee … for F’s sake… get educated… get a life..

Why was the building left to deteriorate so badly? The owners should not be allowed to make any money out of any properties that replace it.

Really intelligent comments have been posted on this thread today!
Monitor, I have never been a great fan of your somewhat ‘insightful’ commentaries, but your recent post has, I am afraid to say, succeeded in inventing a new level of banality.
May I suggest that it is you who should get educated, get a life and stop living in the past.
You make derogatory comment about planners,developers and the author of this thread and you also intimate that it is wrong to make a profit.
Pen y Bryn is one of the principal gateways into Wrexham that has been an eyesore for far too long and I applaud everyone involved in raising its standard irrespective of whether there is a financial benefit involved.
You bemoan the passing of some building in Wrexham but their loss is hardly the most important feature of Wrexham life is it?

The site of the Red Cow and some surrounding buildings has been an eyesore for sometime and I guess because they had been allowed to deteriorate so far, demolition was the only option. The building collapse across the road is testament to what happens if left too long. I don’t think any of us on here want to see old buildings demolished if they have a useful purpose, and I am surprised that “Monitor” chooses to blame the council planners, I would suggest the site owners are to blame.
