Signs for new Castle Cary store revealed in planning application

PLANS have been submitted for signs at a new convenience store in Castle Cary.

Pegasus Group, on behalf of Co-Operative Group Food Ltd, has submitted plans for signage at the former Horse Pond Inn, at The Triangle.

Plans to change the use of the listed premises from a pub into a shop, with a residential unit, were approved in 2021.

Now, an application for new signs has been submitted – including three externally-illuminated signs, two non-illuminated signs, one hanging sign and one sign in the rear car park.

The application said the signage would “enhance the overall presentation and appearance of the street-fronting elements of the building”.

“It is the Co-op’s intention to trade from the ground-floor retail unit and as such, is applying for consent to display advertisements accordingly,” it said.
