Lickszz   10 #1 Posted March 7, 2003 I always wondered, Why did Crystal Peaks never expand. When it first opened it was like a new intiative and very popular, there was nothing like it around until Meadowhall came along a few years later. I always thought that it was their intention to expand and make it bigger but it never came off, has anybody got any idea why? I remember when it first opened and Eddie the Eagle Edwards was the "big name" celeb they got to do the honors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

*Twinkle* Â Â 10 #4 Posted March 7, 2003 i can remember when it expanded, i think they added all the shops from clintons onwards, right towards wilkinsons, if I remember correctly. It definately needs to have more shops, I find it really boring in there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Mo   10 #5 Posted March 7, 2003 Caprice you are right the extension did start from the card shop. Also the market area was moved slightly. If my memory serves me right Liz Dawn from Coronation Street opened the extension. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Andy   10 #7 Posted March 7, 2003 The Star did report that the cinema section will indeed be used for more shops.  Don't forget the retail park just over the road opened a couple of years ago too, introducing me to the delights of KFC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Strix   11 #10 Posted December 17, 2004 Oooh, look! A really old thread about Crystal peaks! Looks like the wheels are well and truly in motion now! Have they finished the new Sainsbury's yet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
vidster   10 #11 Posted December 17, 2004 I read that the old cinema is going to be the new Sainsburys and Sainsburys is going to be new shops. They are now finishing/finished the development to link Crystal Peaks to Drakehouse retail park.  I personally like going to Drakehouse more than going to Meadowhall. There is a lot more space and it has everything you want except a thousand mobile phone shops and a thousand music/games shops!.
