A planning application has been submitted for the group of victorian warehouses to be demolished, at 44-50, 52-58 Lancaster Street, SE1, known as the Colorama buildings. Southwark council has previously undertaken a character appraisal and recommended them for listing.(see link below) Glasshill Street and Webber Street heritage buildings were proposed for demolition. Southwark Council listened and prevented this from occuring. However, the battle to retain the heritage of the area is not over. Want to help save the heritage of the area? Make your views heard! Sign this petition and follow the link to Southwark Council website (link below) consultation period ends 12/05/12 Planning application 12/AP/1066 http://planningonline.southwark.gov.uk/AcolNetCGI.exe?ACTION=UNWRAP&RIPNAME=Root.PgeResultDetail&TheSystemkey=9544617 Link to Southwark character appraisal below(page 5 to 9) http://www.southwark.gov.uk/download/4119/south_of_union_street_and_north_of_borough_road_character_area
