Experimenting with this theory, the restaurant is currently collaborating with BBC Manchester DJ Karen...

Only six per cent of UK land is built on while five out of six people now live in towns and cities, according to a new atlas. And more than half the land is in agricultural use. The state of the art maps show England is the most urban of the home nations, yet still, only nine per cent of the land is built on.
