It’s Growing to be Amazing

We have grown – noticeably, very recently to the roadside frontage of the site. You’ll see the brand new building that is called The Lock House. It will be home to super new retailers offering everything from fashion, independent living, a barbers, antiques and collectibles, candles plus office space above.

One retailer, H Mcilroy, offering clothing, accessories, footwear, jewellery, handbags and more, will be opening 1st March. Whilst at WLGV throughout our Birthday event, please pop in, say hello and welcome a brand new business to the Whilton Locks family.
Thank you.
