The sixties really were an appalling decade for a "slash and burn" attitude
to anything old.

No worse than the Victorians

The Victorians did, saddly, destroy some fine earlier work. But there
own building were generally good.

That is, of course, a matter of opinion

As with most ages, there are great buildings and great monstrosities
that were built, often with very similar style, but with one designed by
an architect who should never have had a commission. Bloody Stupid
Johnson was not invented out of whole cloth.

Bergholt Studdley please...
