    Town Council should be ashamed of themselves allowing a hotel like Hacketts to fall into disrepair.
    It was always going to "spontaneously combust"!

    • @uk-martin4905
      @uk-martin4905 Год назад +2

      This was for many years the York Hotel . It was a a single property which then was subsequently purchased in the late 1980s by a Mr Dale Hackett who had, according to the local evening paper at the time, interests in the local nightclub and / or music business if I remember correctly. He very quickly had new signage adding his name - i..e. Hacketts York House hotel which remained in place a number of years. In the early 1990s whilst I was living in Bispham I remember he seemed to embark on a huge programme of expansion - hs name regularly appeared in the Evening Gazette in connection with his businesses - taking in the adjoining two or three hotels. 😅At that time, the 'York' name disappeared and was replaced with his own. I left Blackpool in 1997 as the town spiralled into decline; I assume that, like other hotels, his business, too, started to struggle.
