The Independent published an article on 27th July on the proposal to build a Tesco store on the outskirts of Holmfirth. The planning application consultation period ends on Sunday 9th August. For information on the planning application, see the Keep Holmfirth Special website.
Update:
After having increased the size of the planned store yet again by a further 1,000 square metres, Tesco withdrew the application in late September 2009. Kirklees Planning Department had received over 1,200 letters of objection to the original application, the largest number they have ever received objecting to any planning application.
