I read with interest your article in the Sutton Guardian about the fate of the old Dolphin pub.

It’s a crying shame that this historic building - which has a lot of character - is due to be levelled, yet another example of the architectural vandalism that Sutton council seems to regard as the norm.

Surely if flats are to be on this site some attempt could be made to at least preserve the frontage of the building?

I’m happy for you to use this on the letters page.
