YES! Fingers crossed that the decision is not appealed. I'd like to see it preserved rather than "converted" into housing or office space and ruining it.

My fear is it would be re-opened to serve its original purpose.

Maybe another institution of some sort?  Or simply a tourist destination set up as it used to be in Dickens time. A "Dickens precinct" would be interesting ...  :)

It would make a useful set for a Newsnight in depth enquiry into urban deprivation in a few months time.
