Once home to the Palace Hotel in 1869, then the Scottish Liberal Club, and later Debenhams, the building boasts ornate Victorian interiors — including a beloved library with oak paneling and ceiling art now likely lost. Conservationists and former owners are pleading for urgent collaboration to salvage what remains, especially after a similar fire five years ago. The emotional toll is high, with cherished artifacts like Gladstone’s bust saved — but the library’s fate, and the building’s future, hang in the balance.
