Council orders new restaurant to remove 'modest' sign following neighbour complaint

A business owner has been ordered to take down a 'modest' sign from his restaurant following a neighbour's complaint that they could see the sign from their front window.

Zenab Khan opened the Indian restaurant Kashmir in Rawtenstall, Lancashire 14 months ago. He spent a decent amount of money converting the building from a former pub, which had been deemed unviable in its current format.

Completing the renovation, he put up a sign on the stone wall at the side of the restaurant in Burnley Road which attracted complaints from a local resident. Rossendale Borough Council then informed Mr Khan that he required planning permission for the sign - something he had not been aware of, reports LancsLive.
