Answers at last for the run-down 'eyesore' left derelict for years

Residents have welcomed work "finally starting" to refurbish a run-down block of derelict shops which have been empty for years.

In August 2021 four fire crews were called to the boarded-up Engineers pub after a blaze broke out in the loft space. Residents speculated at the time that the building was being used as a cannabis farm.Olivia Johnson, who lives on the nearby Greenway Street, often walks past the block of shops. She said: "It's just looked such a mess for so long, I don't know why they've been left like that.

Howard, who works at one of the shops on another stretch of Duckworth Street, welcomed the renovations. "Finally," he said. "Hopefully we'll get some good shops opening up and it'll benefit all of us. It's really good news to see work being done."
