RIP Coalville

I'd still like Emporium to open back up not gonna happen though lol

 

Snibston Discovery Park, well it was quite a niche museum so from reading how much it cost to operate vs. the people that actually used it or the revenue it generated I think makes sense.

You can't blame the council because there aren't enough people using the shops to make them viable. It's happening all over the country, not just Coalville.

You're right, the shopping centre built five years ago, here in High Wycombe, has half the shops vacant, and the rest of the town too. The problem is nation wide.

Got to give shoppers alternatives to what can be easily found online, and it would help if rates were reduced to encourage new start up's.

 

I believe tax cuts were announced a while ago I hope that happens because if something doesnt change we'll juse see charity shops, bookies and food outlets in our high streets for many years.

Car parking, or at least the cost of it, is annoying for little town centres and is a reason why I don't use the shopping centre in Coalville

Passion/Storm were some of the best days of my life, switched to Glastonbury after that.

It is very important that ALL Councils up and down the country realize that they need to offer the Shopper Free Parking in order to compete with online Shopping.

 

Personally i can pin point the demise of the LEICESTER CITY CENTRE when they brought in DOUBLE YELLOW LINES ultimately preventing the casual shopper from entering the city centre - SHOPPING SHOULD BE FUN!

My grandparents are from Coalville. I have fond memories as a child of walking with my late grandad in the centre and literally everyone saying hello to him.

It feels completely lifeless these days, like another country compared to south east England.

I think you will find the history of Coalville originates from a mining industry

what were they mining?
