A blog about lovely Waterlooville, a small, environmentally damaged town in Hampshire, UK. Waterlooville was founded after the Battle of Waterloo in 1815, as troops from that conflict returned home and passed through Hampshire. Having grown from a small village to a suburban sprawl, Waterlooville faces serious environmental challenges today and in the future.

Work on the Woolworths building
It is clear from a peek in the window of the old Woolworths building that the small unit that was once used by Woolworths for selling CDs, DVDs and Games is now being prepared for a new use.
The back office and even the back wall have been completely removed, so it is clear the intention is to extend the retail area and possibly rent it as an individual unit. Apparently JD Wetherspoons are proposing a pub in Waterlooville, with speculation about the old Woolworths location being used. A large organisation like that, would probably have the 'clout' to have extensive work done on any property, including knocking down walls.

I've heard that the Woolworth site is to be a 'Poundstretcher'. Wasted chance IMO.
