WORK to revamp Barnsley town centre has already started - just days after plans were unveiled by the council.
One of the first causalities of the demolition teams has been the Mushroom in Cheapside. Built as an area of sheltered seating, the Mushroom gained something of a reputation in recent years.
Retired glass factory worker John Markey 66, of Brinckman Street said: "I know they have got to improve the town centre but where are people supposed to sit in the meantime?"
