The Proposals

A new Lidl store built to our very latest specification, including modern in-store facilities like our popular bakery, and a sales area including our full range of products

car icon

121 customer parking spaces including 6 accessible, 9 parent & child, 2 EV chargers (with capacity for more) and cycle parking

tree icon

Detailed landscaping plans, including tree and grass frontage onto Wallis Avenue, and an acoustic fence to limit noise from the store

light bulb icon

Noise and light assessments are being prepared so the plans can mitigate impact on nearby areas, including reducing and directing light away from neighbouring properties

Up to 40 jobs for local people, including full and part-time roles. Lidl GB pay rate for hourly-paid colleagues is a minimum of £13.45 per hour, increasing to £14.45 with length of service

electric vehicle icon

Lidl has an ongoing commitment to enhance the environmental sustainability of its stores. A range of technology is used in-store to minimise energy use, such as heat recovery systems and air source heat pumps. Solar panels on the roof would provide up to 25% of the store’s energy requirements
