Argos is closing because the lease is up, the same as the other leases on the other stores.I've heard this rumour too but it doesn't seem likely / can't find any proof of it.
It seems the idea of Argos closing has led to some rumours being expanded.

I've also heard seperatly that the landlord has sold the land for housing. And I know that one of the other stores have had people in regarding the site closure.
Taco bell isn't on the part that's 'possibly' earmarked for change.With taco bell opening there soon it seems unlikely
But that's precisely what people living nearby were saying when plans for 'The Crossings' were submitted !As someone who lives on the crossings I don't know how I feel about this....I cannot imagine even more (added to the ones that are going to be built).... The local infrastructure just wouldn't hold up despite all the bullshit developers would spin on the subject.....

We go becasue our vets is there, but yeah being from the north end I usually drive to Stone to shop!It's about 5 years since I used the Hough retail parks and I'm not a Taco Bell eater, but would the traffic generated from houses be worse than the retail park generates? As a Northender its the traffic issues that deter me from shopping at that end of town at all and it's slightly too far to walk with shopping so I avoid totally. So long as the retail units relocate in vacant properties already existing then this is one place where more houses wouldn't be an issue really. Its not like we are ever going to get any additional sports facilities or green space so it might as well be houses!
