I'm certain there is. Some of the larger stores like M&S, Next and Primark take up several lots. I'm sure HuddsTiger has the correct info.

There are 60 units but as mentioned previous page, one is a garden centre and 7 are food outlets.

Also remember that a lot of units are small shops and not that big. The huge anchor ones are like over three floors for example and take up a lot of the floorspace.

Don't think in terms of numbers of stores, think in terms of floorspace. Remember at the point we had 12 earlier in the year they had 55% signed up of the floorspace.

So in essence, we could be up to over 75% dependent on which units are signed up and the size.

So we don't know if beaverbrooks has signed up are not and we don't know the % taken up.

We do know that beaverbrooks are added to the list on the website,

I'll look at the positives and say it's now more likely than when they hadn't been put on the list.

It is for them.
I'll once again spend my valuable time deleting posts.

All though I've thought for quite a while it's unlikely to get built just going on my own eyes in the build up to Christmas Excape -Freeport was packed the car parks looked full there's always a steady flow of traffic down Park Road heading there, just going on that another retail park across the way should do well

This was more of a contra-sponsorship deal.

By page 150 my money is on, at last, people seeing the obvious.

We will never get a new ground.

I would think there are more Cas fans that think a new ground won’t happen than ones that do based purely on the several false dawns, expired dates for “Work to start” and because of the economic climate.

Knowing we don’t have a Plan B is a concern because if we ever go back to franchising Cas will be way down the list purely on ground alone.

How many times/years can we keep hearing/seeing the tired old “We don’t need to spend on WR because we are moving” bulls hit.

In the changing shopping climate i don't see it happening now. Plan B required urgently.
