Sad. Laurel & Hardy and Charlie Chaplin appeared there I believe.

Very sad, it's almost criminal that it's been left to rot, I believe it's a graded 2 listed building. Such a shame. What will happen now is anyone's guess, hopefully the structure can be saved, and the building renovated.

I hope it’s not condemned after this. The building was built in 1888 and needs to be restored somehow?

This.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

It is a mighty coincidence how all these privately owned unprofitable old buildings seem to get ravaged by a mysterious fire.

The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

Yes it's a shame but no ambition or desire to rescue it has been shown or forthcoming.
It was always going to fall to pieces as things were.

But as Dar said what a history it had.

Sad.

Swansea Council are pathetic when it comes to history. Weavers Mill and the Vetch floodlight being just two.

The Vetch floodlight should be at the White Rock for generations to know we had a one off in Swansea.

The building hasn't been used for years, I cannot possibly imagine a fire there was accidental

It's a not particularly attractive old building that some famous people once appeared at. Well, so was the Vetch and they ripped that down quickly enough.

The place serves no purpose and obviously nobody can make use of it so just demolish and be done with it.

It’s a concert hall with massive history which should have been refurbished and used . We’re building a 3600 arena which will very rarely be filled and smashing down our history. I’d have thought Swansea would have learned it’s lessons from axing the mumbles train.

Refurbished at whose expense? Used for what? With what subsidy?

Nobody has made a go of the place for decades. It's a useless building.

Have you wondered around SA1 or through town and glanced at some of the god damnit awful edifices they've erected, hardly becoming of a once beautifull town, or one our future generations are going to be proud of.
Half the new builds won't last 50 years before they will be condemned and flattened.
I'm staggered that our heritage is not being preserved.
