When our family moved into Burley just over fifty years ago there were shops a plenty in the village. All this talk of having to walk a few more yards to shop is a none starter as far as I'm concerened. Ok I don't live in the village now but if I did local shops would be the first port of call before elsewhere. For those new to the area it must be quite staggering to realise just how many shops, banks etc are no longer in the village.

It's worth looking at the associated documents..

So who, I wonder, is the 'household name convenience store'?

For the benefit of anyone else looking - it's the 30 April letter from FAIRBROOK DEVELOPMENTS LTD which is of interest.
