STROLLING down Trinity Street recently I nearly dropped my copy of the BEN in shock. The hoardings had been removed from the derelict site at the junction of Bridgeman Place and Manchester Road.
I hope, our council have finally found a use for a site empty for at least 15 years - even if it may only be extra parking space!
Congratulations! Next? How about putting some pressure on the vendors of the Cannon Cinema site in Bradshawgate? Sadly it's now been empty for 20 months and has become a real eyesore in the heart of town.
