I wholeheartedly agree! It's about time someone in a position of power began to stand up for our historical buildings. Once they're gone, a part of our history is gone too. Take 1980s Brisbane for an example - Cloudland, Bellevue Hotel etc were all demolished without a moments thought.

Good on Prince Charles!
