Not long for this world - a photo on Flickriver

            The former H.M.S.O., Sovereign House, stands proud over Anglia Square, but not for much longer. The whole area is about to be levelled, and upscaled (reduced) to a 2020's turd and polished with gentrification. It won't work, and It won't be the first time this has been tried, nor will it be the last. The current Norwich City Council are now the latest in a long line of short-sighted councils to try and sweep the heart of Norwich under the carpet. Like I've already said, It won't work, and don't forget that I told you so. Countless times. Not that my opinion is worth a jot.
