Plans to turn former Royal British Legion social club in Ashington into a beauty shop submitted for approval

The owners of 75 North Seaton Road, formerly a Royal British Legion premises, want to extend the premises and use space at the front of the property as off-street parking.

According to the planning application, the new shop will, if approved, be family run and will provide beauty treatments as well as selling products.

Plans for the renovation work suggest the shop will be named Reema’s Royal Beauty Salon.

The application involves installing signage on the outside of the building and making changes to the building’s internal ground floor layout so that it can be used for the desired purpose.

The application does not include plans for the building’s first floor and a separate application will have to be submitted and approved before it can be put to use.

A decision is expected in September.
