After noticing this was fenced off and had a big chunk out of the wall I decided to have a look before it was too late. I had been before but it was tighter than a badgers. This has always been my local supermarket and has changed hands from Cooper's, Fine Fare, Gateway and finally Somerfield. Now it's getting torn down to build a Lidl's.
As you can see from the pictures it's been stripped and is in the process of getting demo'd, which I think improves its character as it was a very bland place. The transformer was crackling away in the background so I was wary of touching any of the many exposed wires. My camera died after twenty shots, before I saw a lot of good shots I could've taken:
Entering the supermarket.
Looks smaller but empty.
The greasy spoon.
We're open!
Use a shopping trolley for gods sake.
Bunch of keys.
Up on the roof.
Looking down.
Ground zero.
