Tesco upsets Bournville residents over alcohol sales - preview
Bournville, the model Quaker village founded by George Cadbury in the 1890s, is facing a challenge with the revelation of a plan to build a new licensed Tesco store within yards of its boundaries
The proposal, publicly aired on BBC Radio 4's Sunday programme last weekend, would mean that a range of wines, beers and spirits would be readily available to those living within the Bournville area, as well as to those outside its boundaries Although alcohol is allowed for private consumption within the area covered by the Bournville Village Trust, it cannot be sold for profit on the estate As the planned new licensed premises are just outside the boundary of Bournville itself, it has raised a strong degree of local disquiet about the proposal
