That (local) article Jon links to saying "The site has lain empty and overgrown ever since, while its future has become a controversial topic of discussion" was almost exactly a year ago (25/9/2021)..? At least some of the area shown in flames on the attached photo is definitely now (re)developed as I described above...but, behind that, on the Grand's front-entrance side as Dave describes, there may still be an area left undeveloped (which I probably framed my pics away from)..?

I've noticed quite a lot of development & refurbishment type work has taken place in England during the quiet Covid period.
