The supermarket was built for Safeway in the early 1980s(?), and was taken over by Morrison's in February 2004. Within a year or so Morrison's were forced to sell it on to Waitrose because of "competition regulation" laws. In September 2020 it was announced that the store would be closing on 31 December, and would be operated by Tesco from early 2021. Image]
