Plans for disused Edinburgh convenience store to be turned into fish and chip shop

A disused former convenience store in Edinburgh could be transformed into a fish and chip shop after a second application was submitted to the council following a previous knock back.

The proposals for 45-47 Longstone Road were refused due to the applicant, who also owns the business next door, wishing to extend the footprint to the front of the building as well as fears over the noise of an extraction system that would have been fitted.

The plans have now been re-evaluated for the former convenience store that has lain empty for a number of years, with the applicant saying their client has "vast experience in the hot food take away sector" and believes that the business would "serve the community well."
