An application has been put forward for permission to open up a hot food takeaway in the old Oddfellows Arms premises. This would make it the 7th takeaway and the third Chinese takeaway in the small market town of Brampton. There is no on street parking outside of the premises and with two other takeaways very nearby there is almost certainly going to be congestion and with the proposed premises being opposite a junction, parked cars may cause obstructions which may result in accidents.
In my opinion an additional takeaway would bring nothing of benefit to a small tourist town like Brampton. As the opening times would be in the evenings it would bring no additional trade to local businesses, and as it would be in direct conflict with already existing businesses it may take trade from them forcing closure.
If you are in agreement with the points raised above then please take a couple of minutes to sign the petition and stop Brampton being overrun by takeaways.
We really don't need another takeaway, I know the building is quite an eyesore and has been empty for sometime, but we are at saturation point with takeaways. back to a pub would be a better option
