Tesco, Ledbury's Newest Supermarket


This is where I work, as Stock Controller at Tesco Ledbury. Here are some picture before and after photos. It was opened on 18 August 1997. The old building, Spicers was knocked down, as they have moved onto the By-pass. There was a need for a second main supermarket and Tesco decided to build it and here it is.

The Main Spicers building was knocked down and the house on the right was also knocked down. The house which stills stands is there because the owner didn't want to move.

Two weeks work and look what was completed. The car park was finished, the Tesco sign was put up. Ready to be opened. The white bus shelter type looking thing is actually a trolley park, to prevent the trolleys getting wet.
