Demolition of derelict eyesore that has been magnet for vandalism finally begins.
Workers from AR Demolition today started tearing out the inside of the former Tresham College building in St Mary’s Road, Kettering, yesterday.
Asbestos, plastic, wood and carpets will be removed from the building over the next two months before the empty shell is demolished in June to make way for new homes.
Andy Seeds, AR Demolition’s site manager, said: “Today is the first day we are starting work. It’s just an initial soft strip – the wood, the plastics and the carpeting is coming out. We are trying to get it down to a bare shell before the machine starts.
AR Demolition reports that around 20 workers are stripping the building and a specialist licensed contractor is removing the asbestos.
