LiDL for Brookfield?


Did anyone spot this little nugget in the local press this week?

The gist of the story is that LiDL food chain who have a branch In Ashton are seeking to open up a new store at Brookfield on the site of the old garage just down from the Spring Tavern.



What's just a little quirky about the ad is that they openly admit they are having a 'Public Open Day' before a planning application has even been submitted.



The question is obviously WHY?



Perhaps it is LiDL policy to do this every time they propose to open a store. Or is it that the Planning Dept at HPBC have given them the advice given the bad publicity that has surrounded furtive applications just round the corner at Rossington Park, where such openness has never been in evidence! Enough said.
