Waddington post office could become residential property

Adele Cottam has applied to convert the former shop in The Square, Waddington, into a fully residential property. The three-storey building already had the second and third floors, along with the rear of the ground floor, designated for residential use.

Additionally, the proposal includes plans to preserve the historical character of the property by removing the tarmac path overlay and re-laying the existing river cobbles.
