I was very surprised to see the indian take-away being all boarded up today and the name plate removed from above the shop. A neighbouring shop told me the owner has gone into a local nursing home and the place has had to close for good. the old asda video shop next door is all boarded up and has been for years, and in the same street... Elizabeths cafe and mowatts old shop all boarded up. The hardware shop is closing and that will be a row of empty shops on one side of Bridge Street. What must visitors to the town think. I heard the Alliance Bank has been sold so that will be unboarded soon, we hope. The town just looks a mess.
