OXFORD – Betsey’s Store is no more.

A pile of rubble is all that remained this week of the brown clapboard variety store at Welchville Junction, the corner of Route 26 and 121.

Further back from the road, rising from the rubble, is the shell of a modern Big Apple Food Store being built by the C.N. Brown Co. The oil company, which runs a chain of Big Apple stores, bought the property from Betsey and Butch Lenberg two years ago.

“We started about a month ago. It’s going to be a beautiful building,” said C.N. Brown spokesman John Pinto.

The new store will include a Dunkin’ Donuts franchise within the 3,300-square-foot space and have an expanded gas pumping island, with six fueling stations. The parking lot will have more parking spaces and more defined entrances and exits, with fewer curb cuts.

C.N. Brown officials have said that the new traffic design should improve safety at the intersection.

The work is being done by Mark Winslow of Marwin’s Construction, with waste hauling being handled by BBI Waste of Old Orchard Beach.
