Mystery Surrounds New Neighbour for Aldi

Bracknell shoppers can already see work taking shape on the new Aldi, the German supermarket, at the former Homebase on Western Road. The huge store is being split into two units, but the occupier of the other one is still a mystery.

Bracknell Forest Council was asked earlier this week. Andrew Hunter, executive director for place, said: "We have not received any planning applications for the second unit of the former Homebase site. Ongoing planning matters remain subject to statutory processes, and it would be inappropriate to comment further while these are being considered."

Avison Young, who is developing the site, has also been contacted for comment.
