English Heritage defend decision to list Civic Centre

The style watchdog for the look of our cities and towns is in Plymouth today.

English Heritage likes what it sees in the Abercrombie-designed shopping centre.

It's recommended the city centre should be a conservation area.

Planning Director for the national organisation, Andrew Vines, also defended the decision to list the controversial Civic Centre. He says the whole of the Abercrombie estate as it's known would be included in the conservation area, which includes that building.
