What will replace the old quick-save building and crumbling row of shops now being demolished in New Ferry?

Are there any published plans lof what they will look like?

All the shops are now gone and ground levelled between the old Bank Building and Woodhead Street on New Chester Road, New Ferry.

I've shopped in this area from a child with Auntie and then as a teenager with my cousins/friends and I can tell you that I've had many happy times here. When I look at this place now, it's soul destroying.
It seems that the simple pleasures that we once enjoyed in life are being taken away.

Well, I think any attempt to regenerate the area should preserve its good features and adequate free parking is certainly one of teh major ones these days.

The plan to give it over to Housing is the death knell for any real regeneration of the area. It is beyond stupid. It is utterly moronic. Those responsible for this lunacy should be beaten out of town with sticks and dogs set on them to speed their departure.

Is a backhander involved somewhere, one wonders.

Government housing quotas are to blame, 1600 new homes a year for 20 years for Wirral is ridiculous and is imposable to achieve without eventually building on green belt which is highly unpopular.
