What do you think of Mexborough high street/its centre? / improvements

[adrian24]

Dear Sheffield Forum,

 

 

I am a Masters Student at the University of Sheffield who is studying an MA in Urban Design. I am currently working on my final thesis project over the summer and i have decided to base my final project on the neighbouring town of Mexborough, inparticular its declining high street, the centre and along the river.

 

I was therefore wondering what local residents of Mexborough or people in the surrounding area think of Mexborough high street/its centre?

 

A £50,000 Government cash boost for Mexborough town centre was approved this week and could be used to move the market onto the High Street. The fund is part of a £10million Government pot intended to be used for bringing empty shops back into use, inspired by a report commissioned from TV retail expert Mary Portas.

 

So what improvements to Mexborough High street or its centre/ or Mexborough in general, would you like to see with this money or in general?

 

 

Thank you for your replies. Your thoughts are extremely appreciated.
