The firm is constructing the store at the former Forest Court in the centre of the village.

The controversial development will include six retail units, 184 parking spaces, café and extended and refurbished doctors’ surgery.

In its latest community newsletter it said: “We also hope to announce a specific store opening date in next month’s issue, but rest assured we are still well on course for a pre-Christmas opening and we look forward to being part of a revitalised village centre during the festive period and come the new year.”

The shop units will be fitted out this month and tenants will be named soon, it said.

A car park deck is to also be completed and the front of the store on Station Road will be clad in timber.

The firm said: “Work continues on all fronts and we really appreciate the positive feedack we have been receiving from residents.

“We will carry on doing all we can to keep disruption to an absolute minimum as we enter into the final phases of construction, including our daily efforts on and off the site, as well as regular letters to our neighbours and making sure we continue to liaise closely with the council.”
