Turned Down

Tricorn Centre, Portsmouth, Hampshire, Owen Luder Partnership, 1966

The Tricorn Centre was turned down for the second time after 1995. The Twentieth Century Society and the Portsmouth Society campaigned extensively for the retention and listing of the building. The Heritage Minister described the Tricorn as ‘dispiriting' and said it never achieved to fulfil its function. The Tricorn will most probably be demolished in favour of a new shopping centre.

Yakeley House, 21 Horn Lane, Linton, Cambridgeshire; Stephen Yakeley, 1971, unlisted

The inspector's advice reads: ‘As an American his work is particularly interesting, notably for its strong geometric composition in the manner of Charles Moore.' Regrettably the building was turned down for having been too altered.
