It'll Be Great When It's Finished

In the 1980s, after decades of demolition, a small group of determined individuals coalesced around a desire to see our built heritage saved and repurposed. This film charts the birth of Glasgow Building Preservation Trust and sets it within the wider context of changing attitudes and approaches to heritage, reflecting on the distance travelled over the past forty years and what challenges and opportunities may lie ahead.
