Charting the story of the Sugar Sheds development and the public debate on it over the last few years. We'll keep adding as we find more. What's immediately amazing is how often the sheds have been reported as "saved" by regeneration over the last few years. It is also striking that across the years, local and national politicians from across the politcial spectrum have supported the notion of using the space in more innovative ways to celebrate our area.
