AJ <\/em>writes:<\/p>\n

The National Trust for Scotland (NTS) has come to the rescue of Charles Rennie Mackintosh\u2019s Willow Tea Rooms, which had been threatened with closure just five years after it underwent a \u00a310 million revamp.<\/p>\n

The conservation charity announced yesterday that it will take control of the Grade A-listed building at 215 Sauchiehall Street next week (19 January). The building is the last remaining tea room designed by Mackintosh.<\/p>\n

\u00a31.75 million was spent purchasing the 1903-built caf\u00e9, with help from donors and Glasgow City Council.<\/p>\n

The tea rooms reopened in 2018 following a Simpson & Brown-designed refurbishment but, said the NTS, had faced years of \u2018difficult trading\u2019 with income adversely affected by the two fires at the nearby Mackintosh Building, part of the Glasgow School of Art and Mackintosh\u2019s most famous creation.<\/p>\n
