A fresh bid to turn a former Rhayader newsagent into a hot food takeaway has been submitted after an earlier proposal was refused.

Plans for Wye Cottage on North Street were rejected by Powys County Council in March over concerns about kitchen extraction noise and deliveries.

Applicant Anne Powell has now submitted revised plans for a collection-only takeaway, which could create five jobs.

The scheme includes a new noise assessment and arrangements for weekly deliveries to Smithfield Car Park, with goods transported to the premises by trolley rather than unloading on North Street.

Proposed opening hours are 5pm to 10.30pm Monday to Thursday, extending to 11pm on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.

The former shop has stood vacant for around two years.

Rhayader Town Council has recommended approval, but Powys County Council will make the final decision.

The application remains under consideration, with a target decision date of 1 December.
