SADLY, Kraft Foods will close the Terry's chocolate factory on Bishopthorpe Road, no matter what MP Hugh Bayley says.
York will need another new large hospital in the near future and what a good site Terry's would make.
The old listed buildings could be altered into nurses' living and training quarters and a new hospital could be built on the remaining space.
This would avoid taking more green belt area for buildings and, geographically, it is on the right side of York to serve west York and the nearby villages and towns.
