What is going where House of Fraser is in Bristol?

Bes · 31 Aug 2008 at 20:23

Now House of Fraser is moving to Cabot Circus, what is going to go where they are/ were (next to Debenhams), as it's a pretty huge shop?

Also, the new bit they are building looks like it will be pretty awesome when it opens: http://www.bbc.co.uk/bristol/content/image_galleries/cabotcircus_cgi_gallery.shtml?1

If I remember correctly another big chain is moving in. Harvey Nicks maybe?
Gimme a mo I will go and track it down

Your right about the new bit looking pretty flipping good though!

Hopefully will have some good and unusual shops.

Are they going to be incorporating sensibly priced parking, last time I visited the middle of Bristol is was extortionate.

Where I live it's 40p for 2 hours.

I think about £1 an hour is about the most that's sensible.

Don't ever visit the Swindon branch during the sales.

Harvey Nicks is in that tall tower they are building (or underneath it?)

Unlucky, Bristol is currently 70p for 15 minutes.

Really looking forward to the opening!

swindon doesnt really compare to bristol for shoping or going out though, so its expected that more money would need to be paid.

I had to park in Swindon for 2 days, they wanted £35 for the weekend. I almost died when I saw it. Instead, I parked for 4 hours at £2.40, went back and put £1.90 for overnight parking, and another £1.90 for all day Sunday. Good job I was about 50 yards from the car park

what date does it open?

K.C. Leblanc · 31 Aug 2008 at 21:17

Erm, the Swindon remark was relating to Primark, although parking in Swindon isn't too bad.
