AG Meek on Albany Road, Roath, Cardiff, bomb damage in the 1940 s
AG Meek on Albany Road, Roath, Cardiff, bomb damage in the 1940 s. *A SHOE business in its centenary year may be forced to close its founding shop to make way for a convenience store. The family-owned AG Meek shop on Albany Road, Cardiff, has been given notice to leave when its lease expires in May this year n which would bring an end to exactly 100 years of trading on the street. Planning permission is being sought by landlords Tudor Jenkins (Properties) to demolish the store and redevelop the site as a convenience store, with three flats above it. It is not known which company could occupy the premises as yet. Cardiff Council leader Rodney Berman, who also represents voters in the area, pledged yesterday to fight the application. The store was founded in 1912 by Albert George Meek and is still run by David Meek, his grandson. Owner Mr Meek said that it was not yet a iforegone conclusioni that it would close.
