Wow that's a surprise, a really big dealer too.
Perhaps that's why?

Apparently not gone bust but a family decision to sell the land for redevelopment. They have transferred customer warranties to insurance backed warranties.

I don't think we can blame that entirely on Brexit, Covid or the French, although some on here would more than likely want to.

Same down here, local Garden Machinery guy, a good old Caravanner, shut up shop, sold his land and put up 100+ homes. Local Timber Merchant also has his eyes on early retirement, plans for 250+ homes.

Easy money

Still a shame,

Thanks Paul

Glad they've not gone bust, a dreadful thing to happen to anyone
I know the area well, outskirts of a village en route her to Gt Yarmouth, houses are going up everywhere here and I know from my travels virtually everywhere else as well

MrsH and I always comment when we see yet another development, where do all the people well enough off to buy come from and where do they get properly paid work to finance?

Glad I'm the age I am!
