Shropshire market town to get its first Domino’s

A new takeaway from renowned pizza brand Domino's will open in north Shropshire after plans were approved by council chiefs.

An application was lodged in July to launch the venue on Artillery Business Park off the A495 Whittington Road, north-east of Oswestry town centre which has now been approved.

It will be the first Domino’s to open in Oswestry.

In 2024, consent was awarded to proposals to build a trio of new industrial units on vacant land next to the A5/A495 roundabout.

Burger King, Greggs and a drive-thru Costa Coffee were all set to take up the space but it emerged last year that Burger King had decided to withdraw from the scheme.

Previously submitted designs for a singular building, known as 'Unit 3', have been replaced by two hot-food takeaway units of 2,000 sq ft each with 23 parking spaces. One of these will be occupied by Domino's.

A previously consented drive-thru element serving Unit 3 has also been removed from the proposals. Access would be provided via a new junction off the A495 close to West Drive.

Artillery Business Park is housed on a former First and Second World War military base in Park Hall, next to Oswestry Rugby Club.

It consists of a range of mixed-used commercial and light industrial units and tenants include a physio clinic, garage and property management firm Evans Enterprises which is behind this new planning application.

It is also home to the The Fort Business Centre which offers serviced offices.
