The building had been neglected for much of the twentieth century. Schemes to rescue it came and then fell by the wayside. Rotherham Civic Society started campaigning in 1994 under its Chairman, Stan Crowther.
The Society started campaigning for the restoration of Boston Castle, one of the town's most important historic buildings. We found strong public support for the idea and we called a meeting to launch a "friends" group to carry on the fight.
For the moment at least, we have succeeded in blocking any building plans on the site of the All Saints Building in Rotherham Town Centre.
One of the most hectic campaigns in which our Society has been involved was the one in which we worked with the Hospice Trust against a Council proposal to build a huge commercial leisure complex on Herringthorpe Playing Fields adjacent to the Hospice.
More than 10,000 people signed the petition..
