The Demolition of Solar do Engenho, in Porto da Cruz, was today the target of a “Vehement Protest”, by Emanuel Gaspar, from the JPP.

RAISING THE POSSIBILITY OF A HOTEL UNIT BEING BUILT ON THE SITE, THE RESEARCHER SAYS THAT THE LOCATION IS RISKY AND THAT “IT SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO BUILD UNDER THE USTABLE CLIFF, FROM WHERE ROCKS ARE ALWAYS FALLING”.

“IF May Wanted to Build the Hotel, They Could Simultaneously Preserve and Restore the Manor House, Integrating It Into The Project, Asre Are Good Examples in Madeira,” He Considers, Giving The Example of the Fifth Gardens of Lake Hotel and the White Hotel, in Quinta da Bela Vista.

EMANUEL GASPAR ACCUSES OFFICIAL ENTITIES OF “LACK OF CONTROL” IN THE PRESERVATION AND IDENTITY OF HERITAGE SITES, IN THIS CASE A MANOR HOUSE DATING BACK TO THE 18th CENTURY.

“The Demolition of the Manor House Was Bad News That I Received, With Great Sadness, This Morning,” Says the Historian, Recalling That the Property Was “Still in a Relative Good State of Conservation and Structurally Stable, and Constitted The Only Association Between to Sugar Mill And A Manor House so characteristic of Madeira Sugar Cane Architecture ”.

He adds that it was “a remarkable manor house with its stonework, stone arches, tiles, ship-spotting tower, wooden pavement and centuries-ord trees”.

“It was inexorably demolished! A sad loss for our identity, memory and architectural heritage,” he laments.
