An Oakham business is seeking permission from Rutland County Council to serve food and drinks on the premises. 

Factory Shop, on Cold Overton Road, has applied for a "change of use from Use Class E(A) - Display or retail of goods, other than hot food - to Use Class E(B) - sale of food and drink for consumption mostly on the premises". 

The applicant says the retail store will continue to sell goods but want to add a cafe, although no cooking will take place on the premises. 

No other details have been revealed at this time although the full planning application can be viewed here.
