Hi Everyone
Today I saw that the oldest gay bar in New York has been declared a landmark. This made me think about where I go that I would like to be declared a landmark. I am pretty lucky that I love The Royal Vauxhall Tavern and it's already grade II listed. But there are also landmarks that don't even seem LGBT/queer that have been important to my life as an LGBT person. When venues are declared a landmark or listed we get peace of mind that they won't be demolished or taken over by a new lease holder and changed.
Where would you want declared a landmark? It can be important to just you or everyone.
I would like the Primark in Bristol to be a landmark, as it's where I did my first shop as an out non-binary person.
