The demolition of a cricket pavilion in Worcester has galvanised locals and stirred the BBC into running a campaign to leave it standing. The 130-year old pavilion is on the Cinderella Sports Ground and despite appeals from the local council, SJS Property Management, acting on behalf of owner Kays (Shop Direct), are going ahead with plans to tear it down, even though the pavilion was to be retained as part of the development.
