The Croft changes so rapidly that it is increasingly difficult to document…
First off, a debate about the nature of “Rubbish”, a subject very close to Stokes Croft’s heart…
Paris has been prolific, as ever, in the Croft… Interestingly , his re-working of the Hillgrove St./ Stokes Croft corner has elicited no response from BCC.
Dave “Steamer”, one of the crew that run the Lakota, tells us that they now have a two year lease on the property.
If you think the Council inflicts its whims only on graffiti writers in Stokes Croft, think again… Thorne Security has moved to the centre of town, and has done a splendid job of returning some classic lettering to its former splendour… But the Council planners don’t like it… Take a look at the two pics below, and if you think Thorne Security have refurbished the building in keeping with how it used to look e-mail Angelo Calabrese and let him know your thoughts…

And below is the crime that Thorne Security have committed…

Dear All
I am very pleased to be able to tell you that Bristol City Council served a discontinuance notice on Primesight Ltd last week.
Helen Rowe has sent us this communique.
Members may remember that the Association has been given leave by the Court to challenge by Judicial Review the City’s decision to permit the demolition of the Lakota club in Stokes Croft, the malt house of the old Bristol Brewery, classified in the City’s appraisal of the Stokes Croft as an ‘unlisted building of merit.’ In particular, and this is the main point of our challenge, we are challenging why we were not allowed to see the financial appraisal which according to the City left no viable alternative to demolition.
