Plans for a Lidl branch in Eastwood, Essex may be turned down for a second time because the building is too boring.
Proposals for a store bigger than an Olympic-size swimming pool at the corner of Progress Road and Rayleigh Road have divided the public. Eastwood Residents’ Association and three-quarters of visitors to a consultation have backed the scheme, but nearby businesses, a 53-signature petition and 78 letters have objected.
Planning officers have recommended Southend Council throw out the plans, as they say a landmark building is needed at the entrance to the Progress Road Industrial Estate.
A pointer for Lidl in terms of keeping pace with the upward adjustment of its place in UK society?
