Salford United Reformed Church, junction of Broadway and Trafford Road, Salford.

The church (originally called Central Salford Mission) has existed on the site since 1907.
The new title of Salford Central United Reform Church was taken up in 1972.

The Listed Buildings website shows that that listed status was granted in 2008 and runs until 2013.
This building has been on Salford City Council's local list of listed buildings which should have previously led to measures being put into place to ensure its retention.
I can't find it on the council website now.

Over the next four weeks, the building is to be completely razed to the ground to make way for a new school. The location for the new school is seen as ideal due to its proximity to the BBC's new home in the north, MediaCityUK.
Once the school has relocated to the new site in 2012, pupils, teachers and equipment for the new school will be transported from the existing school location which is around two and a half miles away.

The idealist that still exists in me thinks it's a shame that less than ten minutes' walk from here, a lot of money has been put into restoring Ordsall Hall but this building must go to make way for a school.
And a new Morrisons and Travelodge are being built a few hundred yards away.

And this isn't about religion; I'm not a religious man.

I just think it's a shame that it has to go.
But that's just me.

I'll get down off my soap box now.
