Ludlow is special

I entirely agree with Andy Boddington (Letters, January 29) that it is the independent shops that make Ludlow such a special place.

But it also needs more people to live in the town.

There is a much greater need for much more low cost affordable housing in the centre of Ludlow, not flats which will be bought by investors, and not more retail space, which will only be taken up by national chains, and not by local traders.
