A farm shop in Cheshire that hails itself an "oasis of quality and taste in a world of uniformity and blandness" has won planning permission to expand and improve its site to include a huge new cafe area.
The Cheshire Smokehouse is a hotspot for fine foods in the Wilmslow area, with its retail shop based in a former farm barn. It used to have a popular cafe too in the upper floor of the barn - but it was forced to close during the Covid lockdowns and has never reopened.
Now, bosses have confirmed that they have secured planning permission for a major redevelopment of the site, off a quiet lane in the village of Morley Green near Wilmslow. It will include an entirely new glass-fronted building to include a glossy new cafe space.
