Hi Folks,
Does anyone know this old business / warehouse behind Wetherspoons on the high street? It has a great logo on the large doors that can be seen from Mumby Rd, opposite Aldi.. I just wondered about the company and what they did there but nothing on google? Any locals know anything of it's history?
Thanks.. Olly
