The row of shops, topped by run-down maisonettes, on West Park Avenue, are now being bulldozed and will be replaced by state-of-the-art homes, a new district library and a convenience store in a development managed by the Community Gateway Association (CGA).
In 2017, following extensive consultation with local people, the CGA began developing the area around Savick shops as part of a major regeneration project.
