Now, we're always told to buy local and support our local businesses - but according to one shop keeper Lisburn City Council is making it nearly impossible for him to keep his doors open. Gwen's Shop has been serving the community in Milltown off the Derriaghy Road in Lisburn for over 35 years - but a few weeks ago the council started work on monument to commemorate it's mill heritage right on its doorstep. The normally busy car park has now been taken over by diggers and barricades and Gwen's owner, Winston Lyons, says his business has been decimated. Our reporter, Nicola Weir, went to meet him and his customers.
