"Placecheck" is a simple tool to help civic groups improve their place by asking three questions:
What do we like about this place?
What do we dislike about it?
What do we need to work on?
Two teams surveyed the town centre including Market Street, Chadwick Street car park, Marple Wharf and Marple Memorial Park. The teams later compared notes in a discussion led by Ian and David.
All agreed that should Chadwick Street car park be developed with a foodstore it is important that the development be integrated with the wider shopping areas and civic amenities and not create a "One Stop Shop" in the town centre.
