A CHANGE-of-use planning application for premises at Naunton, near Upton-upon-Severn, which should have gone before a planning committee on Wednesday was withdrawn by the applicant.

Applicant K Teale had applied for permission to change agricultural buildings on land off Green Lane into a part-time workshop for vehicle repair and renovation.

The application had been recommended for refusal by planning officers.

But when Malvern Hills District Council's area planning committee met last week, members were told it had been withdrawn and would be resubmitted in the near future.
