SITUATION
The property is located on the west side of the B902 Carron Road, around
1 mile to the north of Falkirk town centre. Access is gained directly from
Carron Road and is shared with the adjacent unit J&W Carpets, which is
positioned to the immediate west of the property. The surrounding area is
a mix of residential and retailing. To the north of the property is the Carron
Centre, including a Co-op Food supermarket, Well Pharmacy, Lidl, Greggs
and Carron Medical Centre.

The Co-op own their site and have secured planning permission to build a
single storey retail building of two units on part of the car park. The larger of
these at 4,000 sq ft is to be a new Co-op store, with the other at 1,500 sq ft
to be occupied by Well Pharmacy. It is expected that once this is completed
the existing Co-op store building will be demolished and the site will be
marketed with potential for a mixed use development that could include
retail, leisure, hotel or residential.
