I do hope so I love Wilkinson but weren't there rumours about all this about 8 months ago and nothing came of it. Surely does not take 8 months to sort out a lease?

If i remember rightly they were having problems with the back access & costain.

They defiantly coming, as they've put in plans for signage.

it is about time something happened to that old Wooloworths store. It was an eyesore as it now stands.

Hmmm, and Wilko will be such eye candy.

Whatever it will or won't be it will be better than an empty and tatty store.

It's only tatty because the landlord has let it get like that.

Yes, but won't it look better when it is taken over? Whoever take it over.

Great news, about time we had some action on this site.

Incidently, I saw the Labour Party were looking for votes outside there today; seemed highly symbolic to me that they should be doing so outside a shabby, empty, abandoned place!

Goodbye Gordon!

Good one. Although I was expecting to see some sea. You know, that bit between the land and the sky.


Just because the place is empty, doesn't mean it should be allowed to look a mess. Instead of posters for a circus that has long since left town and whitewash (how very 70's) on the glass, how about community posters. Minimal cost to the landlord.
