    I was wondering that too, someone told me it was going to be a underground carpark and then a shop and apartments above.

    Is that the back of the development at Woods'

    Correct me if I'm wrong...

    Thats the one I'm talking about, I don't think there is another big development there, but I haven't been there in a while so there could be.

    It was supposed to be a large pub, shop units, offices and appartments. It may change before it's finished. It's being developed by the people who own Toff's and the Belfry.

    :(

    back on topic, heard something about shopping as well, although thought that was just for the woods site

    Isn't there something on the shop window that says there is a possibility of a large department style store...which we have discussed in the past and have mentioned Heatons to go in there.There has also been rumors of a large superpub/music venue but I have a feeling that was turned down....Don't quote me on that though.
