Beauty salon set to be turned into café and takeaway

A hair and beauty salon is set to be transformed into a café and takeaway.

Anita Wronska has been given planning permission to change the use of the premises at 106 Norfolk Street, in Wisbech.

A planning statement said no external or internal alterations were proposed.

"The appearance of the building will remain relatively unchanged, with the exception of an extractor fan to the rear elevation," it added.

A planning officer's report said the business would operate as a café supplying sandwiches and some warmed food, with limited food taken off-site.

It said: "The proposed change from a hair and beauty salon to a café would bring back a vacant unit into active use."

Wisbech Town Council supported the proposals. No objections were received.

Permission was granted on condition the change of use takes place within three years.

The business, which will be open from 9.30am - 7pm daily apart from Tuesdays and bank holidays, will create one full-time job.
