Recently I was in conversation with Rowan Ardill at one of his Hump Day Coffee Club days (if you’ve not heard of this before, there’s some information coming up). Rowan asked had I saw the development works ongoing at the Petrol Station on Ramsbottom Lane, I hadn’t as I’d not been up there recently. This chat started the thoughts with regards to the independence of Ramsbottom and whether or not the introduction of a Starbucks locally is a threat to it.

On Thursday the 21st of February there was a public meeting which was arranged by James Frith to discuss issues with a representative from the old Mondi Papermill site and a representative from the banks to discuss their positions in Ramsbottom.

What actually happened was there were no representatives from either banks or from the old papermill site, which I make my opinion of on this episode of the podcast.

From memory I pull out what I felt were the key points from the meeting, I’d love to know what you thought if you attended or if you didn’t, what you thought of the outcome from the points in this podcast episode.
