These were the scenes at the former Highbridge Hotel on Thursday (June 26th) as workers dismantled the roof of the fire-hit property.
The charred roof beams at the top of the building were removed to allow fire safety inspectors to begin assessing the property over the next few days.
The building was left in an unstable condition after a huge fire devastated it in April. It has been sealed off with safety barriers ever since.
Burnham-On-Sea.com’s photos show the work to remove the roof underway on Thursday.
Last week, we were first to report that the owner of the fire-ravaged Highbridge Hotel plans to hold a meeting during the next fortnight to unveil his plans for the site. Derek Mead, who owns the site, told us he hopes to unveil his plans for the site at a special meeting.
