'Mummified pig' at derelict Kwik Save that has become antisocial hotspot
Quick Glance: 'Mummified Pig' at Derelict Kwik Save Turned Antisocial Hotspot
  • A derelict supermarket has become a hotspot for antisocial behavior - locals have faced fires, slate throwing, and a mummified pig.

  • The former Kwik Save building in Felling, Gateshead, has been empty since 2007 after the company stopped trading. A significant fire in August 2021 left the unused store charred with massive roof holes.

  • A local resident, who chose to remain anonymous, mentioned having to avoid their kitchen and close blinds when youths are at the former supermarket.

  • Gateshead Council has taken action against owners OM Properties Investment Company Limited and is moving forward with demolition plans. The owners have indicated their intention to repair the building.
