An Aberdeen hotelier has vowed not to demolish a wall with ties to the city’s medieval past.
Around 130 people have objected to demolition plans for the preserved wall around 62 and 64 Shiprow, previously approved by the council.
Hotel boss Mary Martin, who bore the brunt of the “whipped up” outrage, has now said they have “no intention” of knocking down the unique granite frontage.
A report compiled in 2010 noted the survival of fragments of a former tenement between 60 and 62 Shiprow, viewed to be of “cultural significance” as it likely incorporated Middle Ages architecture within it.
