Gastronomy Foods UK Ltd, a KFC franchisee partner, said the request is only for the drive-thru operation, with the firm wanting it to stay open until 2am every day of the week. Currently, it is open until midnight.

The Amercian fast food restaurant is by Domino’s, with a McDonald’s – which also has a drive-thru – not far away.

While KFC could not comment on the application, the company would be working with Shropshire Council and follow the consultation process.

Anyone who wishes to make a representation regarding the licence application should do so by October 23.
