A new cafe could be opened next to a pub in Lees, planning documents have revealed.

Documents have shown that permission is in place for a cafe to open in a one-storey property on Nicholson Street.

The unit is currently used by A&D Appliance Engineers and sits in between the Angel Inn pub and properties on High Street.

Documents showed the cafe would have seating towards the front of the property and a counter, with a prep and storage room along with a toilet to the rear.

Formal planning permission to turn the unit into a cafe is not required, according to planning documents, and any development into a cafe would be able to go ahead.

The property lies within Lees Conservation Area, meaning any new signage would not be permitted development.
