This development doesn't seem to have gone ahead, looking online there seems scant references to the development, the references linked to don't work, and looking on google maps there is just a Tesco & a clothing stone there. The page was created over 12 years ago and hasnt been updated since, with the information in it speculative — Preceding unsigned comment added by Richjones91 (talk • contribs)

Delete. Per an independent search for sources, this proposed project that can be confirmed dead. The developer went into administration in 2015 and sold the site in 2017.[1][2] As of 2019, the new developer was planning to build residential homes there.[3] Only the strip mall got built, and that gets only routine coverage. • Gene93k (talk) 13:55, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom, WP:NBUILDING, WP:NBUSINESS and WP:GNG. This seems to be a run-of-the-mill shopping centre. Containing Tesco and Matalan outlets. And not much else. Maybe a Burger King. But so what. The available coverage speaks to a broader development which was never progressed. And so this article stands only as an example of why we have WP:CRYSTAL guidelines. Mine is a very firm "delete" recommendation. Guliolopez (talk) 20:24, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
