LETTERS – Holbeach deserves better

Why does Holbeach always get grey things?

Take the paviors in town – grey, the cheapest. Spalding’s are red, the most expensive.

Then take the blot on the landscape, the new food college on the bypass, dark grey and ugly. Where were the planners allowing this in open countryside?

I have lived in Holbeach after doing National Service in the 50s and think the town deserves something better.
