Ramsey Great Whyte: Exciting proposals are being developed to improve the local environment in the Great Whyte area within the town centre. An important part of this is to provide new ‘Shop in a Box’ small retail units that can be let on a flexible basis and which can also be used to expand and improve the Ramsey Market. Ramsey is fortunate to have very few vacant shop units. The new small units will provide an opportunity to expand and improve the retail choice without competing with existing traders. We are currently working with Cambridgeshire County Council to develop enabling proposals for highway improvements, after which we intend to submit a planning application to the Planning Authority. Delivery is expected to take place in 2026/27.
