Construction work at Hazledine Park was completed by Morris Property in September, with the site handed back to Shropshire Council.

The local authority instructed the new prominent development, which has transformed a former pitch and putt site in Meole Brace.

The scheme, off Oteley Road, comprises of a Starbucks and KFC drive-thru, both of which are open. The site also has five additional retail units, four of which are currently under offer.

However, planning documents have been submitted by Greggs this week stating that it wants to install a plant and display new signage at Unit 1.

A letter sent to Shropshire Council’s planning team from Emma Robson, shop, design, and planning administrator at Greggs, says that the proposed operating hours will be 6am to 5.30pm Monday to Saturday, and 7.30am to 6pm on Sundays.

“The proposal includes the installation of plant to ensure the unit can operate efficiently as a Greggs bakery,” said Ms Robson.

“The plant is located discreetly and has been sited to minimise its visibility from the public realm. This includes AC (air conditioning) units, ventilation grilles and vents.

“The plant equipment is essential to the functioning of the bakery but is not considered to give rise to any adverse impacts in terms of noise, odour or amenity. The nature and scale of the equipment, together with its screened

location, ensure that the development will not result in any detrimental effect on neighbouring occupiers or the wider environment.”

In relation to the signage proposal, Ms Robson said: “Greggs’ approach to signage is to provide clear and easily identifiable signage of an appropriate scale to the shopfront and wider area.

“It is considered that the proposed signage is therefore in line with the character and appearance of the building, whilst also not detract from the existing visual amenity of the area.”

The proposal can be viewed by searching for references 26/03969/FUL or 26/03970/ADV via Shropshire Council’s planning portal.
