| After following the construction of the Lidl supermarket in Rawtenstall, I noticed that another German owned supermarket was to be built in nearby Ramsbottom, and I thought it might be interesting to see if the style of construction differed on this one. This collection shows a number of images taken at various times in recent months, showing the various stages of construction of the store.
What was immediately noticable was that this store was built in a more 'english style' way, with a steel frame and brick walls, very different to the more continental wooden frame style of the Lidl store. Progress on this new store certainly seemed to be much faster too, with work taking far less time on getting the main structure erected. The store is due to open in November, so the entire project will only have taken around six months compared to the eleven months or so for the Lidl site. |
