Here are the biggest planning stories from the last week in and around Warwick.

Roof Repairs

"Radical" plans to renovate a Warwick town centre building have been signed off by district planners.

Strandpark Properties Ltd has been granted planning permission to complete a major refurbishment at 16-18 High Street, in order to prevent a "future collapse" of the roof.

The project - which will focus on the vacant first and second floors - will see a new roof installed and steel beams to support the second floor after "various serious structural defects" were discovered.

The scheme will then see much of the original material reinstated to hide the beams from view and preserve the "historic pattern" of the building.

New Primary School

Detailed plans to build a new primary school for up to 420 children in Warwick have been submitted to Warwickshire County Council (WCC).

An outline application for the proposed 'Myton Gardens Primary School' was given the green light by councillors in June.

And now a reserved matters application has been put forward for the Fusiliers Way development.

----------

Outside Seating

Warwick's Wetherspoon has been granted permission to keep its outside seating for the next 12 months.

Warwick District Council has allowed the Thomas Lloyd pub to keep its pavement licence until next September.

New laws on pavement licences were brought into effect in the summer of 2020 to make it easier for businesses to apply for permission to put furniture outside during the pandemic.
