Lichfield Road retail development to open in early 2025 – here’s what you’ll find

The new retail development serving the communities at the southeast end of Stone consists of five units, the largest of which is a Co-op food store.

Central England Cooperative Limited has recently applied for a Premises Licence for the Sale of Alcohol Monday through Sunday, from 07:00 to 22:00.

Joining the Co-op will be a fish & chip shop, and a large veterinarian group will be taking two of the units for a new vet’s surgery.

That leaves a single unit, highlighted red in the image, of 1,000 sqft in size left to let. Anyone interested in the unit should contact Ian Simpson at Helicon Projects. heliconprojects@gmail.com or 07966 404927

    Perhaps the drive entrance to the shops and the houses will be named Farnham Drive as a tribute to the former Stone Counciler Joyce Farnham who proposed adding the shops to the development.

    This is the fulfillment of a feature in the original plan for the estate of over 40 years. Better late than never.

  • Definitely need a Greggs!

    Pity it’s a takeaway. There’s enough litter to be picked up in Little Stoke already. Shops and vets great addition.
