Dizzy Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I've just been reading the other news site and seems that at the Stockton Heath Parish Council meeting last night the M&S representative said their new store in the village, where the Co-op was, will also have a cafe in it.Do we really need another cafe in the village though and I bet the one right next door to it isn't too happy about hearing that bit of news. No planning application was needed apparently for cafe inclusion.Also quoted re parking there is a statement that says "I accept it is not perfect – one hour free was important for us," and then she confirmed that "parking at the location will remain the same for the current 'moment of time'."I wonder what that means, are M&S perhaps planning to taking over ownership of the the top car park as some years ago it did once belong to the shop not the council (I think).Or does she mean that the council might be reviewing the parking there in the future?Did anyone go to the meeting and hear it all first hand ?

Coffee Posted September 13, 2015 Report Share Posted September 13, 2015 It probably means there will be no change in the near future Dizzy From memory the store is not very big an an hour is likely to be more then enough to do any shopping there so it is unlikely M + S will be wanting to subsidise the car park I feel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
algy Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 If the SH M&S cafe is the same as their others I don't think the little cafe next door will have anything to worry about Dizz!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davy51 Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 Maybe they could spice up the shopping experience by calling it S & M. That would be a good talking point in stocking feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
