Formerly a well known local business, this building faces demolition; along with more buildings to the rear, to be replaced with 7 town houses. Despite the council calling it an eyesore, it is a great shame that the original frontage could not be kept, as the stone ground floor is believed to be part of an 18thC warehouse. Too much of our history has already been lost due to town councillors not having enough vision.
