A north Shropshire football club has been given planning permission for a new temporary clubhouse to replace one that had to be demolished over safety concerns.
There were no public objections to the plans at Butler Sports Centre, at Bowens Field, Wem, and the town's council was all in favour of the replacement facility.
The planners were told that the previous Wem Sports & Social Club, which was a club house for the football team, was demolished in 2021. Planners were told that the former Wem Sports & Social Club was built in the early 1970s in two parts, the original brick built structure which forms the changing rooms and toilets followed by a second phase to form a bar and function room. A link building was constructed which increased the size of the bar and formed an entrance to the building from the existing car park.
