SIR: The ideas for a permanent food market at Debenhams and a Lido at River Park are superb.
As guides to how each might look please check out Altrincham Food Market in Greater Manchester - a lovely combination of great quality food retail and top of the range, casual F&B. And the Lido at Lymington - how that could transform the area of the North Walls...? A Lido would build on the great sporting facilities already in North Walls – Bowling Greens, Tennis Courts, Skate Park, Winchester Rugby and Football Clubs and the new Cricket Pavilion. With the Art College next door external art events could also be encouraged all year round..

Winchester deserves more than the endless hairdressing salons and struggling chain stores. Transforming both of these large sites into something memorable is an absolute must.
