A PLANNING application for a new Greggs store in Milford Haven was discussed at a recent meeting of Milford Haven Town Council
The plans, from Milford Haven Port Authority, were discussed at the Planning, Policy and Community Committee meeting, held on Thursday, February 10.
The application requested removing four car park spaces at Havens Head Retail Park in order to create a seating area for the proposed Greggs store.
Spaces removed from the car park would be at Unit B2, while the Greggs store would be at Unit B, by the current Poundland store.
However, several town councillors expressed concern over certain aspects, including the crowding of the car park, particularly with fewer spaces and an extra food chain store present at the retail park
The meeting head that Greggs has not explained if the proposed store at the retail park will be an extra site or if the Charles Street store will be moving.
The Herald understands that it will be moving.
Councillors showed concern that should the Charles Street store move to the retail park it would be yet another nail in the coffin for the town’s main shopping street.
