Believe me because I live near there, all that car parking near Ossy Mills is required. |

It wouldn't make a difference if Tesco replaced the Co-op as it would still mean one supermarket in Ossy but that was never part of the plan. :confused: We would have had both. |
Re: Tesco for ossy?
I'm in two minds about Tesco's non-arrival in the town.
I hate the delapidated Fire Station, and can't wait for something to be done with the site. However I simply loathe supermarkets with a vengence. Every town, in every county of England, looks exactly the same. Full of the same big multi-national stores, and hardly an independent shop left. I fear Ossy, and many other once thriving small towns, will become like the satellite towns outside of London, and the south-east. No more high streets with a butcher, baker, and candlestick maker. Just estate agents, hairdressers, and off licences, that serve the transient population, who commute to work, and do their shopping once a week by car, at the dreaded supermarket. I doubt that anything can be done to halt this decline, as people's lifestyles have changed forever. |

The uphill walk up Tinker brew would put off some people from buying much there

Well i'm miffed as i was planning on applying for a transfer, as its just at the top of my street. I have heard though they've only withdrawn plans to re ammend them.
I was also talking to my store manager and he said that theres no way Tesco would have bought the site if they didn't think they'd be able to build. Whatever happens somthing needs doing with the eyesore. Everytime I go past it i'm gutted as i spent a lot of my childhod in that firestation, as my Dad was a fireman. |

9 parking spaces is not many plus any service vehicles which need to go there. How many parking spaces does the Tesco Express have in Accrington ? You right though, doesn't seem as if they have given up yet as per the statement put out by their spokesman:- "We withdrew our application to focus on this feedback and to take the time to address the issues raised. We hope to meet with the relevant officers to discuss our progress shortly" So possibly no need to give up yet on a shorter journey to work. |
