It is set to become a Lidl supermarket
Mansfield’s iconic Rosemary Centre will be demolished and turned into a Lidl supermarket despite councillors raising concerns about the site’s heritage. The district council’s planning committee approved plans for the Union Street site after a split vote at its meeting on Monday .
It had recently housed stores such as Argos and Domino’s Pizza as well as a pharmacy before all stores closed and relocated elsewhere. The only remaining outlet in the former shopping centre is Iceland. However, Monday’s meeting was told the business is relocating to its existing Food Warehouse store at St Peter’s Retail Park.
It followed concerns about the building’s demolition and calls for the building to be reused for other purposes. Alongside the Lidl, a fast food takeaway unit will be created – with some concerns raised about an over-concentration of unhealthy food in the town. “That aside, I understand it has been empty for a long time – decades. “But my biggest concern is the number of lorries delivering on a very small access street. I don’t know if I can support it.”
