What do we need more and less of on the High Street?
Lincoln High Street needs a better range of affordable shops, including clothes for more ages and sizes, according to readers.Fashion brand Zara was among the top suggestions in social media responses.
Elaine Charleston Dodd said: "Cornhill and Sincil Street looking great. New marketplace will only further enhance. Chuck a Zara into the mix."People also wanted to see brands including John Lewis, Disney, and Build-A-Bear open up. There appears to be some frustration among readers with the current offerings in Lincoln and a desire for more options and variety. Louis Everington said: "We need clothes shops that diverse in all sizes, that cater to the younger and older generations."Some asked for a weekly market, more local independent businesses, green spaces, and a more diverse range of businesses. Karen Boxall-Mason said: "A decent weekly market lining the streets. The one thing I have always felt is lacking in Lincoln." Helen Coleman said: "A market please... No clothes stalls, just good, old fashioned fruit and veg, flowers, sweets, deli, fishmonger etc." Val Moore said: "Affordable, accessible places to eat, some local independents that local families can actually afford to eat."Terri Lines-Hiatt said: "We need shops. We don't need more restaurants and bars." Tom Kitchen said: "Better integration of local retail businesses to add diversity into the streetscape. At present Lincoln’s retail offering is no different to anywhere else. It’s bland and boring."
