A veterinary practice could be opening in a Wollaton shopping precinct that houses several other businesses and a Lidl supermarket. The site on Trowell Road was previously a Waitrose supermarket and petrol station, with the national business exchanging contracts with Lidl in 2019.
Planning permission was then granted for the site to be divided up so that as well as the Lidl supermarket, it would house several other business units. Companies operating next to the Lidl store include The Green Room hair salon, the ExtraCare charity shop and The Little Carpet Company.
But a unit at the back of the site has remained vacant and the operator of several East Midlands veterinary practices has now been revealed as a business that could fill it. Planning permission had been granted in 2020 for a gym to fill the vacant unit, but this never materialised.
