Absolutely disgusting your wanting to destroy this beautiful building. You should be ashamed of yourselves. As usual more council tax income wins. Outrageous.

There are few enough of these buildings left... can't believe you would destroy it for a carpark/flats.

An important house. It would be much better to restore it than to destroy it.

As an ex resident and business owner in Conwy I object to demolishing such an important piece of architectural history . Restoration is what is needed and it being included in Conwy's rich heritage trail . Put carparks well outside town . Enraged !

Looks like a beautiful example of art deco architecture. It would be criminal to demolish it.

I used to drive past that house and look in amazement at the beauty of it.

Minor assaults can be healed. This is an outstanding and irreplaceable building, and its demolition a huge cultural loss. Remember the Firestone Building.

The last thing the world needs is more car parks. Save this beautiful building.

To knock a building of significant heritage to make space for car parking would be sacrilege. Surely park and ride facilities would be better?

This beautiful building can easily be restored and go on to give future generations pleasure and a insight into style that modern buildings are lacking in

This is a beautiful, unique building which should be saved. It would without doubt be a loss to Rhos on Sea if this building was demolished. Surely it would be better to reinstate the original windows? I have seen this done with similar properties in Newquay in Cornwall. Would it not be better for the environment to renovate this property rather than building a modern carbuncle in its place? The whole situation smacks of corruption and I wonder who on the council is going to benefit from it?
