New corner shop could open at former village nursery

An old nursery in Nelson could be turned into a shop, if planning permission is granted.

The new convenience store is proposed to be on the corner of Shingrig Road, at number 23.

The proposed layout includes a new sign and the addition of a ramp at the front of the property.

In a design and access statement submitted to Caerphilly County Borough Council it said the shop intends to be open between 8am and 9pm, Monday to Saturday, and between 9am and 9pm on Sundays.

These hours were decided to avoid any issues in the residential area.

An alcohol licence for the premise has already been obtained for these hours.

The former play area, to the rear of the property, is proposed to be turned into additional car parking spaces.

The car park is accessed via Donald Street.

The application was submitted by Atriarc Planning on behalf of a client.

A decision on the application is expected to be made by the council by January 11, 2022.
