A west Stirlingshire village shop, which failed to reopen after a devastating fire, looks set to be refurbished.
However, Gargunnock Community Council hopes to begin a turnaround of the property’s fortunes with a refurbishment.
Two representations, both said to be neutral, had been submitted raising questions including the potential impact on bats and noise from the air source heat pump. “However, since the point of submission, the state of the roof has significantly deteriorated and it has become a safety concern. This was evidenced through a roof survey which outlines that the slates should be stripped as soon as possible.
“Overall, the proposed timber replacement windows are considered to be appropriate for the style of the property and will relate well to the existing windows, whilst also seeking to improve the energy efficiency of the dwelling.
