Stepney Hotel, Llanelli
One of Llanelli's more historic buildings, the Stepney Hotel, on the corner of Park Street is scheduled for imminent demolition. Originally built in 1761, the current building’s structure is believed to date from the 1850s or earlier. Unfortunately, it seems the planning department didn’t realise this building’s significance to the town’s history (or chose to ignore it) and along with other more recent nearby buildings is about to be wiped away in the name of progress.
In its last days, the building is no longer a hotel, with many of the upper levels no longer in use. It now houses the Sol Bar (now also closed pending demolition).

Demolition of upper Park Street
On this day, a row of shops in what's left of Park Street Image that were once a thriving part of Llanelli town centre is finally demolished to make way for modernity's sake. Decay started long ago but was hastened when bypass was built blocking off through access.

It'll only be missed when it's gone.

Not long ago, the first building on this terraced street, already scheduled for demolition, burned down (suspected arson). Since then, it's been cordoned off. This street is now cordoned off ready for imminent demolition.
Edit: 03/10/06 new thick blue barriers were observed around the entire site - new picture required :)

Zion Chapel and Sunday School
Zion chapel and Sunday school are listed buildings and are safe from the extensive modernization that's happening all around them. Zion chapel was built in 1857, when there was a strong Wesleyan following in Llanelli. In 1913, the Sunday school building was built next door.
