VISITORS to the historic Holywell on the Malvern Hills could soon be able to enjoy spectacular views across the area from a new viewing platform.

Holywell owner Mike Humm has submitted a planning application to remove a deteriorating pitched roof from a garage at the site and replace it with a flat roof serving as a viewing platform.

Black railings would be incorporated for safety and the proposed paving for the platform would fit with existing paving in the area.
