Co-Op Hall Nuneaton Demolition Update 19.11.2008

The Kingsholmes still there. Its fell even more into disrepair though.

The ringroad effectively annexed this building. After that, its future was zilch. Criminal to demolish such an imposing deco building.

Hi John, Terrible shame. Has the Nags now gone as per comments below? Used to play there frequently as Jeepster, Maverick (not that one) & Stormin' Normans. Great venue. And many thanks for finally getting the Kats Vids on. Fantastic to see them again... Jeff (Bass)

I live in nearby Solihull but allways remembered this building fondly when passing through Nuneaton. Its a total disgrace that this building was demolished, So many famous bands played there in it's former days and i can imagine it will be missed by the locals. I notice a small plaque has been placed on the new site to commemorate the previous bulding, Its an odvious sign of guilt on behalf of the council and shame on them. Does anybody know whats happened to the Entertainment exchange?

A scandalous loss. Nuneaton loses a unique and historical building, for a faceless supermarket, and they call this 'development'?

What will Nuneaton have left at this rate???......The Nags Head is coming down next from what I have heard.

If I had the money I would renovate the Kingsholme pub as it is where I met my husband, 16 years ago. It has great rooms and could be stunning if given some tender loving care. Ok pubs aren't in such great demand now, but a restaurant would serve Nuneaton well. Eateries are all outside of the town other than takeaways...bring back trade to the centre.

you might recogise my initials here john. that's a good video you've put up, such a shame that they're demolishing that place, it could have made a great concert hall if anyone bothered to spend the money. that end of town is a ghost town now, everywhere's boarded up
