I have happy memories of going to Whitcombs in the early 90s. It was fantastic.
I'm a friend of the people who bought the building. I saw everything that was there before the clearance was done. The clearance was undertaken by Whitcomb people, not the new owner. My understanding is that not everything was to go to the skip. There were some nice things, but a lot that looked less interesting close up than from affar. It's quite possible that most of what was practically worth saving was saved.
