The owner of a business which shut after losing 90% of its income following the closure of Godstone High Street says it was not “financially viable” to continue trading.
This street has been closed since February due to the presence of a giant sinkhole, with engineers since discovering a network of Victorian sand mining tunnels around the site.
There were hopes that the street could reopen in December, but SES Water confirmed last month that work would continue until at least March.
Surrey County Council says it is “hugely sympathetic to the disruption caused to the residents and businesses of Godstone”.
