The short parade of shops on the corner of Ham Street and Ashburnham Road has seen a lot of change over the years and Ashburn Carpets is the latest shop there to close. The remaining shops almost exclusively cater for the hungy student market and while that is a reliable market it means that the parade is dominated by food stores and takeaways.
It will take a while, some years, but there is hope that the redevloped Ham Close with its larger population will improve the prospects of both parades on Ashburnham Road.
