Now if there is one thing I have come to learn ………… it is never miss an opportunity to record the changing landscape.
And when the landscape involves a controversial building a picture of the said building is a must.
This one has evoked some strong feelings, all which have bounced around social media, and is now in the hands of the planning department.
Along the way, its progress to the present involved what most people thought was an extension to the café, and the demolition of that tree.
Andy Robertson, as ever has been on hand to record the story from the destruction of the tree to now.
All of which means his picture will be a record of the changing Chorlton landscape, long after the tree and the open space with this building have been forgotten, as they surely will be.
