James,


Not content with commandeering scarce parking spaces on L.L. for his stock of cars for sale, this trader is now placing cars on the pavement.


Apart obstructing the pavement, he has erected bollards and drilled 12 bolt holes for them through the paving slabs.


Your views please.


Thanks,


GG

Because having multiple subjects or matters on a single thread just complicates matters. One subject per thread is the way most fora are organised.


Maybe better to have a dedicated area for Council matters?

And the reason for putting this thread in For Sale....?

I'd like to know legal it is to have John Alan Flowers taking up the space they do on the pavement? I can't believe they own that much of it. It is so close to the crossing and road.......dangerous when you have to move to avoid them. It gets very crowded on the pavement at that end of LL.

haha, green goose just boosted his advertising!


as alice said it depends whether the freehold/lease for the shop includes the section of pavement in front of the shop, if it does then he is perfectly in his rights to park the cars there and put up this barrier, but he should be responsible enough to keep it in a safe condition!

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
