“My family still live in Urmston and I'm a frequent visitor. Please come along and say hello."
Leon Guyett, development director at Ask Developments, the developers behind Eden Square, said: “We’re excited to have BBC Radio Manchester broadcasting live from the square especially as it will feature presenter Phil Trow, a local lad born and raised in Urmston."
