The world has changed, no one is going to park up and drag food shopping back to the car from several little farm shops. What other independent shops can you think of? Ones that people would actually use. I appreciate the sentiment, and I find it sad too, but I really don't see how this will get better.
Brought back some memories this did mate, Wednesbury my home town was a busy bustling town when I grew up there in the 90s sad to see it so tired now I left in 2004 and it just doesn’t feel like home anymore when I pass through.

What did the council expect when they gave permission for a giant like Morrisons to open up a megastore, it’s killed the already struggling high street and market stalls, even has a cafe inside so they went too. The old kwik save and Woolworths went, no wonders it’s full of nail bars, fast food and tattooists, it’s a dead town just flatten it and make more parking spaces for mozzers.
Hi Phil enjoyed the walk around Wednesday I'm pleased to see the market back in the town centre and remember a bike shop at the bottom of Union Street next to the old bus station I used to work for Patent Shaft Steel works when I was15years old
Do you really think it will ever happen ? I imagine the Tories have a time limit on any grants, they want all works completed before any general election.
Wednesbury Town looks pleasant enough. It seems as though there are not too many boarded up shops that we see in many towns these days. I suppose nail shops/ hair shops are better than no shops, but totally agree"…………. How many of these facilities do you need in such a small area?
Do you remember me Phil? I stumbled across your Channel as I saw a talk about Wednesbury pubs being advertised on Facebook. My parents ran The White Horse Hotel in the mid 80s. Thought I recognised the voice then you appeared.
@@DeanCopeland-yi3qi Hope you're managing your time well, retiring early can get very tedious. I shall have to come to Cannock one of these days for a spot of filming!!
@@awalkwithphil I retired on medical grounds as I'm on dialysis so that keeps me busy and out of trouble. I do home dialysis. I didn't want to retire but health my took its toll. Hednesford is a very small little ex-mining town it'll be ideal for filming, there's loads on RU-vid but it's all about the raceway. You'll have to come over.
@@DeanCopeland-yi3qi Sorry to hear of your health, it seems you are managing it ok. You were certainly a great asset at your job. I have a few West Brom projects to film but I'll certainly add Hednesford to the list, i'll let you know and a meet up would be good.
Resurface some of those pavements and potholed roads. I've seen a lot worse but I have also seen a lot better. A lot worse WATERLOOVILLE A lot better LEWES
