Tolkiens Haus soll aberissen werden:

Tolkien house to be flattened
By Juliette Astrup

A POOLE bungalow once the home of JRR Tolkien is to be demolished.
The bungalow in Lakeside Road was where Tolkien retired with his wife Edith in 1968 after his two best-known works, The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings trilogy, had already made him famous.
An application by Cranbrook Homes (Southern) Ltd for outline planning permission for two four-bed family homes on the site breezed through planning at Poole council on Monday.

James Dean, director of Cranbrook Homes said he was not aware of the building's history.
He said: "It's going to be replaced with two superb contemporary houses. In the light of what you've just told me, perhaps one of them should be called Tolkien."
Tolkien lived in the three-bed bungalow, which backs onto Branksome Chine, until his wife's death in 1972 when he moved back to Oxford. Although no real evidence of his ownership remains, the beams which formed part of his study are still visible.
It came on the market for £1 million in November, sold by the person who bought it from Tolkien himself. The author, who died in 1973, is said to have found respite from his growing fame there and at the Miramar Hotel, Bournemouth, which he and his wife frequently visited. A commemorative plaque can be seen on the front of the hotel.

Ich bin zwar nicht so empört wie einige der Kommentatoren, aber schade ist es irgendwie doch. Wenn man sowas hat, könnte man es doch auch behalten. Von anderen berühmten Autoren wird auch alles mögliche be- oder erhalten...
Schade! :cry:
