Tesco
When Tesco unveiled plans to build on the Eversheds site on London Road, Anne was a vocal opponent, as it would have threatened local shops and added to traffic problems. She fought a strong campaign against the proposal and forced Tesco to produce a pollution study which was instrumental in the case against the store. In February 2010 Tesco announced a cessation of their plans.
