    What is going on?

    Any place that doesn't sell consumer tat / coffee / doughnuts / burritos appears to have moved to doughcloyne in the last few years or are planning to go there.

    It has gone to the point that I'd rather go for a shopping trip to Doughcloyne than the city. Hardware places have all but disappeared from the city centre ( bar Scotts).

    What booted this on, have the council increased rates on that type of business to make it unfeasible to stay? and what is so favourable about Doughcloyne?

    There's a gaff down past the driving test centre selling coffee/doughnuts....

    Maybe burritos too...

    Must be land values. Much easier to have a big premises with loads of parking than in the city centre.

    Cars have been hunted out of the city. Alternatives to the private car are unattractive.
