geared Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Hi does anyone know what The Royal Oak is going to be ? there seems to be a lot of building work happening . Must be renovations to open up as a pub again. No planning permission has been filed for any major changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidneystone Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 The Royal Oak now has shop for rent signs up. I have spoke to the builders today and they have informed me that it is being converted into two shops, a restaurant and a flat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully not another Kebab joint, don't need anymore on that street. It's a tough spot to run a restaurant from, lots of people go to the Wetherspoon a few doors down, reducing the number of customers for a restaurant.

kidneystone Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Hopefully the shops will not become hairdressers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beligerence Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Hopefully the shops will not become hairdressers. Surely market forces will dictate what the shops will become? Anything is better than shops sitting there empty for years on end. Some odd folk on here, would rather have empty shops than people renting them out.

Beligerence Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 So if it was a straight choice between an empty shop or a hairdresser, which would you prefer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
