They are building it out of flat packs and some have come with the screws missing so could be a while yet.

I called in there a few days ago and one of the staff said this was not the case.
She said goods can be ordered and received in store within 2 days.

It was announced earlier this year that a new full store was to be opened in 2018. Haven`t heard of this being stopped since so expect it is still going ahead.
I imagine they will be utilising one or more of the empty units up at the back so fit out shouldn`t take more than maybe 6 months once they actually get started but as I said, haven`t heard anything about it yet. Unless any of the pps that live locally have heard otherwise ??

I looked at this yesterday and I am not sure there is an empty unit at the back, I could of course be wrong, the only space I can see is to build over the existing car park, and tarmac the ground immediately next to it, to provide a car park.

On a serious note, have watched for developments with interest and on our last visit they were doing a major in store refurbishment, so would you do that if you were going o do a big redevelopment and extension????
