A COUNCILLOR has congratulated a local business based on the Tonedale Mill Business Park in Wellington on “expanding and doing well.”

Members of Wellington Town Council’s planning committee were asked for their comments on February 3 about a new premises license which had been submitted by Brazier Coffee Roasters Ltd.

Braziers already had a license for the sale of alcohol at Unit 10, but such has been the success of the business it has now moved into the adjoining Unit 8 and needs another license.

Cllr John Thorne said: “It’s good to see a local business expanding and doing well. It’s a nice little place there.”

Councillors supported the new license application – assuming neighbouring businesses had been notified of the plans.
