'Upset' as donated food and old photos from 1950s left in Bramcote school gutted by fire

A councillor has demanded answers over what happened to old photos of his friends after they were left to decay in a school gutted by fire. The school in Bramcote dated back to the 1940s and was once used as a hospital in the Second World War.

Independent councillor Richard MacRae, who represents Stapleford North and attended the school as a boy, told Nottinghamshire Live he spotted numerous items of note in a video filmed by urban explorers and uploaded to YouTube. Some of these items included old school photos, some of which likely of his friends who had passed, and food that he had donated as part of his charitable work.

He says he wants answers as to whether these historically important items will be given back to the community. However his requests so far had fallen on "deaf ears".
