KNIGELK, I agree, there is always space on the high-street....but for an independent, good quality family type butchers. Crawshaw's in my opinion (although limited), seemed more of a commercial enterprise - thus would be competing with your supermarket grade meat! I made mentioned a long time ago that it had 40 shops or so, made a mere ONE million profit, but had a market cap of a staggering 70 million plus...MADNESS! It was all based on their ideal to roll out 200 plus stores...it was all hot air. I am sure the shop-staff will find employment elsewhere during the festive period.
