    Ah, you're more of a 'shur it'll be grand/keep the recovery going' type.

    That may suit your narrative again but I'm afraid that isn't the case. I'm more a discuss the actual issue itself rather than make silly comparisons to rebuilding an old historical city after a war and implying this is a uniquely Irish problem.

    The building itself is historically insignificant really in the grand scheme of things. Was worth preserving, but not worth rebuilding IMHO.

    Problem is buildings are all too often not preserved until it's too late

    Absolutely. A lot more should be done in this respect. The asylum being another and IMHO much worse example of this recently.

    I genuinely fear for the future of that building.

    Crazy that the council spent money on the roof of a privately owned house owners should have been more responsible for securing the house.
