South Ribble Borough Council has approved at least five proposals in the past seven days.
They include the building of seven blocks for jobs and parking amongst other uses, following the demolition of existing structures at The Old Mill in School Lane, Bamber Bridge.
Permission has also been given for a single storey side extension to a bespoke detached Penwortham home, formerly on the market with Marie Holmes Estates, with five double bedrooms, six bathrooms and its own private gym. The new extension will include an enclosed swimming pool area.
Here are more details about the council’s decisions regarding the latest applications.
