Go ahead given to expand Park Street shop

Plans have been given the go ahead to extend a retail unit on Park Street.

Hardev Sirpal has been granted conditional planning permission by Louth County Council to expand 35 Park Street which current trades as Abdul Grocery & Halal Shop.

He has been given the go ahead to extend the retail shop which will consist of a single storey flat roofed rear extension in the yard space of existing shop.

Earlier this year plans by Mr Sirpal to convert the unit into a hot food carry-out facility were refused by the council.

Abdul Grocery & Halal Shop sells a wide range of food items. The shop has been open since summer 2016 with Hardev Sirpal overseeing it.
