SIR - Looking down on Bingley from the ‘Crows Nest’ I witness the slow and steady destruction (hurrah!) of the much loathed concrete structure that once housed the Bradford& Bingley Building Society.

At the same time, I cannot help but see how ugly and out of context the ‘Five Rise’ shopping complex appears to be. Is it just me, or are we for ever being saddled with architecturally inept third rate constructions?

Aldi are currently building a new supermarket on the Dubb Lane site. This is indeed welcome news, but what’s the betting it will be no more than a glorified tin shed ah, progress!
