Architect's concern over performing arts buildings     

Architect's concern over performing arts buildings An architect who specialises in the performing arts sector says he fears a third of venues across south Wales will be gone over the next 10 years.

Rob Firman aims to catalogue 65 south Wales venues in communities from Monmouth to Milford Haven.

Many were built from subscriptions in former mining districts.

But as public sector cuts bite, Mr Firman said Wales was at risk of losing an architectural heritage which he said was "mind boggling" in its ambition.
