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?

 

 

There is a M&S food store in Cross Gates in Leeds. Hardly the nicest area of the city. So no reason why it can't work in Drakehouse.

M&S is overpriced rubbish IMO. Drakehouse is not a doss hole.

Didn't say it was.

I think it's a great idea, think of the jobs it will create and more so think of the competition the customer will win in the price war

It's not got much going for it either!

 

A giant car supermarket - wow.

A pretty rubbish shopping centre.

2 retail parks which are horrendously busy at weekends causing traffic nightmares around the whole area.

 

On the plus side there's........

That's not Drakehouse.

 

I agree, the road network is beyond madness. But, Asda will help in creating a much better road system. It's crying out for it.

Sorry, my mistake. It's just so hard to tell where one of the townships finish and the others start. Waterthorpe, Sothall, Hackenthorpe, Owlthorpe, Westfield, Halfway, Beighton, Mosborough, Oxclose, Drakehouse etc. Where does one finish and the next one start?

I accept your humble apology. I just look at the map with my glasses off. It is a blur for sure.
