There are only really a few ways to prevent old buildings from going to ruin. You can turn it into something contemporary and useful, like luxury flats or a Wetherspoons, you can put it on AirBnB for £500 a night, or, if you’re a real lover of culture, you can make it a museum.

This unassuming district of Hackney has arguably usurped Dalston as the unofficial queerest neighbourhood of east London, so it seems only right that the girls, gays and theys in the area should now have their own venue too.

Screen legend Elizabeth Taylor, who died in 2011, was a pioneering advocate for the LGBTQ Community long before it became fashionable to do so.
