So sad and wasteful. There are currently plans to demolish every single cooling tower in the country. This is a mad annihilation of landscape-scale heritage features. Join @C20Society to try and stop this kind of shortsighted destructiveness.

Earlier in the year we co-hosted a sold out Easter Egg Hunt event with @spaceplaystudio. Part of the event included a film screening. The film was made by Spaceplay & incorporated a number of narrated stories about the school from current & previous students. Music: Wild Forms
