Good news - The Welsh Streets have got a reprieve ... well, some of them, anyway. The original plans to demolish 477 houses have been reduced to 108. Two cheers for the city council! Those 'saved' include Ringo's childhood home, in Madryn Street, above. I know at least three other people who live in Madryn Street, so hooray for them too.
But residents groups [such as the Welsh Streets Home Group], trying to hold community together, are keeping on fighting to save the houses still earmarked for demolition. [Join them]
