You might remember in a post last September I shared with you some changes that had been happening in and around Loughborough, which included a new building that was being erected in the town centre, next to the Phantom pub (previously known as the Cross Keys)? It's been 9 months since that post, so I thought it was about time I re-visited the construction site, and had a look to see where it was at. Although I haven't been out and about much over the past 15 months as I would have done pre-pandemic, and haven't regularly walked over that way, I do seem to have a selection of photographs covering various times in the past 9 months, to share with you.
Not so long ago, this area, on High Street was home to a blacksmiths, a jewellers, the army surplus store and the carpet shop both in the old church, and Anglian windows. Down on Pinfold Gate was Momento Mediterranean restaurant, a curry restaurant, a barbers, a baby shop, a tattoo parlour, an acquatics shop and a motorbike shop. Round the corner on Aumbry Gap was Corah the builders, followed by Groups Music Tuition, a gym and a furniture shop, whose entrance was off Barrow Street, and then a tyre place.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy seeing photographs of what's happening to this area at the moment.
