A once prestigious and somewhat posh icon of yesteryear in the seaside resort of Rhyl finally met it’s match today, in the form of some bulldozers.
Situated in the centre of the once-bustling town, and previously home to a delicately designed Victorian hall, the Queens buildings graced many a celebrities presence, none of which we could find evidence of. But still, it looked very nice.
For decades, various groups and historians in the North Wales area have campaigned for the building to be restored to it’s former glory. The once-marvelled ceilings with elegant designs could have offered Rhyl a peek back to Victorian times, when men were gentlemen, and women were ladies.
But instead today, heavy-equipment rolled in and before anyone could finish their Greggs, the contractors started the demolishing process.
Recently, it was rumoured on social-media that there was a secret underground network of waterways, where tourist gondolas would travel, the route stretching from the corner of the Savoy (the old Bistro), all the way East to the Bering Straits in Russia.
Harold Zipperbum, chief contractor, said “We’re doing it. It’s too late. There’s no room for posterity, heritage, elegance, class, this is Denbighshire – we don’t like any of that stuff here.”.
Denbighshire County Council were not contacted for a quote and didn’t say; “Who needs character in our towns? Knock it down, heck, knock ANYTHING with character down – it’s not like most of the county relies on tourism and people come for that is it? We’ll make our county as generic as we can, you won’t have a clue where you are. If you’re in doubt as to our dedication and collaboration, look at the uninspiring square boxes Anwyl are knocking out for you lot too – right up there in our grand ‘Bland-designs‘ programme.”.
North Wales News have secretly found out that plans are afoot by a millionaire businessman to build the worlds biggest ball-pool at the site instead. No comments were given on this either, but North Wales News envisages that many criminal objects that would have been used in trials could be safely hidden in the pool once completed.
