A scheme for new shop buildings on the car park of a Stockbridge restaurant has been approved by Bradford Council.

The two units, next to The Bridge Lounge on Bradford Road, would have a combined floor space of 150sq m and two upstairs flats, and would share the car park with the existing restaurant.

The application, by Abdul Rob, was approved by Bradford Council, with officers saying the shops would create jobs, and not harm trade in Keighley town centre due to the shops’ small size.
