Sue Larter, from my observation the responsibility rest with those ( vandal )councillors who had no respect for Yeovils heritage. As I well recall as a child in the 60s walking by the two attached medievil buildings of the Old George inn,with its heavily carved oak doors, and the bakery next door that were in the High Street, which they had pulled down. Supposedly for road widening purposes,which did not happen ! Instead ,a very bland red brick box of a shop went up in their place. A building that added nothing at all to Yeovil's historic past,and nothing for its future beyond a statement of blandness. I also recall it was said, that one half of the front doors to the George Inn was to go to the Natural History Museum in London,and the other half to be put on show at the local Museum. Some 30 Years later when revisiting Yoevil, I called in at the Museum only to learn that they had no record of the door at all. Nothing !! When my parents moved to the outskirts of Yeovil in the early 1950s, I recall a much more architecturally intreresting town than is seen today, as so many of its historical building were demolished during the 1960s, and 1970s with scant regard to Yeovil's historical past or for its future. So sad to have had such idiots on the council who brought such destruction on the town, more than the bombing did during the second world war did.
