On 19 October 2018, the civic society announced the recipients of its Building Awards. In addition to the categories of new build, refurbishment and shop front, this time we had a special “50 year award” to mark the beginning of renovation work on Bear Steps in 1968. For this, we asked people to put forward buildings – new build or renovation – which they felt had made the most positive contribution to the townscape over that time.
Thanks to everyone who sent in nominations. And congratulations to all our award winners. Please keep your eyes open for worthy buildings for our next awards in 2020.
