I saw today fastened to the lampost outside the Con club, that an application has been submitted to build three houses on the site of Albert Oldhams motor garage.
Could this be the start of the complete destruction of the canal yard cut.
Theres has been much speculation since the canal closed it's offices at Marple over the future of this area which I believe may be in a conservation area.
The residents of Lockside with the assistance of the Community Council fought long and hard to stop the rat race of vehicles using it as a short cut.I see this development encouraging even more traffic to be wanting to use this already congested area.
If this development takes place, it would in my opinion, be injurious to the natural beauty and traditional style of the area.
Anybody know any more about this or the Applicant Mr/Mrs Fleet
