sedith   19 #2 Posted January 24, 2011 If they do they are going to have to sort out the parking problems around that area before they start building! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

HeadingNorth   11 #4 Posted January 24, 2011 There was a story in the Star some days ago that they are seeking planning permission. They are a long way from actually building and opening it, yet.  Asda intend to present evidence that "many people are going outside of the area to shop at Asda in Handsworth." It's less than three miles away, just how small an 'area' is one megastore supposed to serve? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Anyone else heard that ?  I doubt that it is true, Drakehouse isn't the right area for M&S. It's a bit like plonking a branch of Harvey Nic's in Walkley or a Jack Fultons in Dore. They just don't fit. Perhaps somewhere like Millhouses would be a better location? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
