    Lorraine, the problem as I see it is that the heritage assets on the Heights need positive action to preserve them. 200-year old walls and buildings need hugely expensive skilled maintenance in order to keep them from decaying and collapsing. The money is not there to arrest the decline; while WHPS does sterling work on certain of the sites, there is not enough money or manpower to stop much of the area becoming a hard hat zone.

    The only way is as Paul describes. Personally I find much of the Heights depressing as it has been allowed to become derelict. Dereliction is not conservation, it is neglect on an industrial scale through the heritage policy of successive governments.
