Lidl has released new plans for a store in Ruislip, following the rejection of its initial proposal by the Hillingdon Council.
The revised plan aims to address the concerns of residents, who had strongly opposed the demolition of The Orchard pub on Ickenham Road.
The pub had been a favorite haunt of members of the 303 Squadron during World War Two, and its potential demolition had sparked outrage among locals.
Lidl's new proposal includes the preservation of the site's rich history, with plans for a memorial garden featuring a Spitfire and a seating area for visitors.
In response to concerns about traffic safety, Lidl has revised its plan to enhance traffic and pedestrian safety, including the relocation of the existing bus stop.
Residents are encouraged to provide feedback on the new plans, which can be viewed on Lidl's dedicated consultation page at https://ruislip.newsite.lidl.co.uk.
