The town has also been subject to an extensive redevelopment scheme during 2012-13.
By the 1950s, with its continuing growth, the town was becoming congested, and the Council decided on another major redevelopment scheme.
It is likely that under local authority ownership the redevelopment scheme will go ahead.
Up to date, no official redevelopment scheme has been made official.
In May 2009 a major redevelopment scheme was approved by the local council following public consultation.
But the council are still keen for another developer to take on the redevelopment scheme.
Work has already started on the second phase of a £5m redevelopment scheme.
Work is planned to start on a £6 million redevelopment scheme in December 2012.
The redevelopment scheme itself dated back to the 1940s and 1950s.
This became the major problems of 1960s redevelopment schemes.
