Milton Keynes was renowned for its new take on architecture once upon a time, but it’s fair to say there are plenty buildings that now divide opinion.
We asked locals to come forward and nominate the unsightly buildings, which they’d like to see vanish from the area for good.
From doomed tower blocks to a rusting cinema, we take a look at nine Milton Keynes buildings that some locals would like to see levelled to the ground.
Have we missed any buildings you think should be included? Or perhaps you disagree with some of the suggestions? Let us know at [email protected]
1. Mellish Court
The 18-storey Mellish Court building, in Bletchley, is a top eye-sore in Milton Keynes, and scores of people have already been asked to move out with proposals put forward to known the tower block down.
2. The Gables
The nine-storey Gables, in Wolverton, is among the doomed buildings in Milton Keynes the council and majority of the public want to see levelled.
3. The Point
One of the first multiplex cinemas, The Point, shut in 2015 before developers wanted to renovate the site and turn it into a "leisure-focussed" facility - which never came to fruition.
4. Toys 'R' Us
Toys 'R' Us in Grafton Gate closed in April 2018 after the brand went into administration after failing to find a buyer for the company - and the store has remained empty ever since.
