  • Link bridge removal night work at The Galleries shopping centre, Aldershot.
    Great work from Baldwins removing the roof steels.
    A lot of prepping was done by the lads prior to this which helped this project go really smoothly, enabling us to safely remove each section as it was lifted down.

    Remember being so excited as a kid when it opened. Sad to see it go, but better than it sitting empty.

    I'm old enough to remember when The Galleries was still part of the Wellington Shopping Centre, when the post office was on the ground floor and there was this big store that sold all sorts of things just up the escalator in the corner if memory serves.
    It's kind of bittersweet to see it finally go after so long laying empty, but... I think this is for the best.

      Great memories! Its such a shame that it sat for so long, it was a nice little shopping centre, although a little dated for todays standards! I imagine what comes next will be a big part of Aldershot’s regeneration project and will be used for years and years to come!

    Will there be more videos of the demolition of the mall area itself when the time comes as it would be very interesting to see? Very sad to see it go though.. Mismanagement and economy was its demise. I remember the big pet shop after it was built in the early 90's. It was in one of the larger units where JJB was. Mark One was by the escalators. Great memories and it was so busy then.

      Yes there will definitely be more to follow! I will try and get a quick update on the link bridge this week but I will definitely cover the demolition of the shopping centre and try and document it similar to this video.
      Everybody has very fond memories of the place it’s been great to read all the comments about it, would of loved to see it busy back in it’s day!

      We expect the bridge removal to last another 2-3 weeks, the scaffold will stay in place slightly longer while they install a new glass facade above Lidl.
