Reports surfaced that Turnmills — one of London's best-known and longest running nightclubs — is about to close to make room for real estate development.
A spokesman for Turnmills tells Evening Standard:
As far as we are concerned our lease is still intact until any legal documents have been signed, which they haven't at this stage and the permission to develop does not mean they need vacant possession for the first phase of the building works. The long-term plan for the building and development far exceeds our existing lease. We are in negotiation with the landlords to buy us out of the remaining lease if they want to bring the development of the basement forward - which they may or may not want to do. It's very early days.
They've already dropped their name. Sad news for British clubbers indeed.

Its a shame
after The Cross now Turnmills closed :-(
What a disappointment? The Cross, The Key, Canvas and now Turnmills .......
I used to love coming down from Manchester to Turnmills! They were the best ever club nights I had experienced in the UK especially with nights like Trade. What an experience, which I will treasure for the rest of my life. Pity I can't get hold of those very rare Trade CD's as my final memento! Anyone know where I can look?
