2009 Felixstowe’s Fine

Felixstowe Demolition Decisions  

Vandalism has been attacked as being senseless, mindless and a scourge of our times. Property  and useful amenities such as toilets and the like destroyed with thousands of pounds worth of damage committed  each year. However it is sometimes difficult to appreciate the difference when a lovely building like Felixstowe Beach Station is destroyed overnight  with such urgency and then the land left desolate for years.  Do those engaged in such vandalism need to be brought to account.  Demolition  seems to take place with sickening regularity in Felixstowe once described as the holiday gem of the East Coast reduced  by council action to the state it is in today. Listed below are just a few demolition tragedies  at the suntrap
