This website started life as the vehicle for publicizing a monster development - Slessor Square - and the adverse impact it would have on the local neighbourhood and on the wider town. The development has now, for whatever reasons, stalled.
Since then, other inappropriate and out-of-place developments have been proposed for the Town. This website, run by Gordon Prentice, offers a commentary.
