Description: Staff member Mike de Groot holds the old Ladbroke Beaufort sign, with the Hilton branding in place behind him. The Beaufort Hotel became the Hilton Hotel in April 1988 and has gained notoriety as a symbol of the 'Sack of Bath' and the unsympathetic clearance and developments of the late 1960s and early 1970s.
Photographed on 13th April 1988.
