Aston Juxta is just another name for St Peter & St Paul Aston, so not sure which St Peter you mean. St Peter Dale End was demolished before my time.
However, this debate is taking over Chris´s thread, which isn´t the idea.

Wolverhampton Mander Centre. They had to lose a lovely old arcade off Queens Square and some interesting and historic folds.

Wisechild. My memory must be playing tricks. I thought there was an old church inside the Bull Ring development. But agree, slightly off thread. :-)

The oldest church in Birmingham St Martin is in the Bullring (it´s still there).
Aston Juxta Birmingham got it´s alternative name because Aston wasn´t part of Birmingham when it was built, but was actually a much more important place & SS Peter & Paul is older than St Martin.

Sorry Chris. :-) :-)

There's been many ugly buildigs put up in central London over the past 30 years, but the very worst still has to be the Lloyds Building by Leadenhall Street. Where someone had the pretentious idea of leaving all the steel casings for the pipes and cables on the outside. Horrible.

I also agree with John that the Gherkin is one of the ugliest buildings in the City. Especially as it was built on the site of the beautiful Baltic Exchange building.

Not particularly ugly, just bland 1960's, is the Melbourne flats block in Chelmsford.
Just about the only building over four stories tall for miles around and it sticks out like a sore thumb from all directions.

Okay Southampton civic centre may not be the prettiest place but it's by no means the worse !! It was much nicer with the rose gardens in front of it for sure.
If you want ugly in Soton then what about that block of 60's flats that was in front of the railway station, I think they won an award years ago for being ugly....are they still there ??? I haven't seen the Titanic museum so can't comment on it sorry.
The Parliament buildings in Edinburgh now they are UGLY !! =0)

Bognor Butlins has a building that is supposed to resemble a tent I think, as is the grandstand at Goodwood racecourse.The sows teats of the downs.
