Old Castletown police station up for sale
An architectural historian says Manx National Heritage's status as a consultee on registered buildings effectively 'means nothing'.
Peter Kelly of the Isle of Man Victorian Society was speaking to Manx Radio about the future of the old Castletown Police Station.
An offer by MNH to take care of the station has been rejected after it was unprepared to meet Treasury's financial demands for the building.
Mr Kelly used the example of a previous planning application to demolish part of Baillie Scott's former home in Douglas, the 'Red House' on Victoria Road.
He says the plans went ahead anyway, despite MNH's objections:
