Grimsby's ice factory added to 'at risk' list
Grimsby's historic ice factory and kasbah has been added to a worldwide list of sites of historical interest that are considered to be endangered. The building was closed in 1990 and today stands derelict. The Great Grimsby Ice Factory Trust is working to try to secure a new future for it.
The World Monument Fund's bi-annual watch list has been released and the ice factory has been added to it along with Sulgrave Manor in Northamptonshire, Battersea Power Station and Deptford Dockyard. The list aims to focus international attention on sites of cultural heritage that are 'at risk'.
