Demolition of former Rotherham town centre bar begins
Demolition work has started on the former Rhino building on Bridgegate in Rotherham town centre.
Rotherham Council has stepped in to take action and is working with the owners of the building to carry out the demolition work.
A post from the council on Facebook said: “Work is taking place to partially demolish the former Rhinoceros (Rhinos) building on Bridgegate in the town centre, to make the site safe and allow the pedestrianised area in front of the building to be re-opened.
“The building had been left in a poor condition following fire damage, so the Council has stepped in to take action. We're working with the owners of the building to carry out the remainder of the demolition work.
“We’re continuing to take positive steps to improve the town centre and create a place we can all feel proud of.”
