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.”
