A bid to change the use of a former shop in Ardrossan's Rowanside Terrace into a hot food takeaway has been refused by North Ayrshire Council.
The proposal would involve alterations to form a customer waiting room, service counter, kitchen area for food preparation and servery and area for sinks and toilet to the rear of the unit.
The property at 39 Rowanside Terrace is currently unoccupied and was last used as part of a shop.
