New shops / businesses opening in Stafford

Opens today I believe?

Yes opened today, and for free donation collection, read the leaflet carefully, not all collections are free.

I was going to have a look today, but they had an 'event' going on, presumably in an effort to drum up business. This seemed to involve an inordinate amount of noise, and so I decided to wait until things calm down a bit..

There's a good selection of N Gauge for those intending to build a ladies' layout

A ladies layout, how dare you! We ain't all got a room the size of the Gatehouse Theatre to set up a layout!

Sometimes size matters.

True. Have you any experience of digital actuation...?

Good to see you on here - beware of some of the inmates.

I noticed what looked like shop fitters in the now vacant Bon Marche last week - anyone any info on what is happening?

Yes definitely someone moving in there by the amount of work they are doing.

-AlsotThe old Max Spielman place is going to be an cafe/ resturant.

Planning permission has also been received by SBC for the former town library at the Green next to the Apollo Cinema. The application and plans are for a resturant whose head office is in Birmingham, don't who it is. That will be interesting.

Also been told someone is taking up the vacant high house slot, but it came across as more of a rumour than any fact.

Bon Marche is where Greenwoods is moving to.

While not shops it seems the graded listed buildings in Martin STreet that SCC has recently vacated and Greenhall are going to be luxury appartments according to Cllr Winnington. The library building in Friars Terrace is likely to be housing also.

A MAJOR new Debenhams department store looks set to open in Stafford.

The retailer is understood to be in advanced talks to take over a three-storey site at the multi-million pound Riverside development.
Stafford Borough Council is refusing to confirm the news but borough council boss Ian Thompson told the Newsletter this week that developer LXB had re-submitted a planning application for a three-storey retail store on the corner of South Walls and Queensway.
