Proposals for an alcohol licence at a busy Irvine petrol station were given the green light on Monday despite concerns about public health and so many other premises having booze on offer.
Monday’s licensing board considered the application from Highland Fuels Ltd for a provisional premises licence for an off-sales at the petrol filling station at A737 in Kilwinning Road, Irvine.
The premises have been operating for many months as an Esso with a Morrisons Daily supermarket convenience store, which replaced an onsite shop following its demolition.
