Documents lodged with the district council state the restaurant would be called Normadi Pizza.

A supporting statement submitted with the planning application says the shop would be a wood-fired pizzeria and wine bar, providing take-away service with limited seating inside and on the outside terrace during summer months.

The menu will include wood-fired pizzas, salads and desserts, as well as wine, beer and soft drinks.

A deli counter will sell a selection of cheeses, olive oil and pizza toppings.

The kitchen will also provide the venue for pizza courses and training.

It will employ four full-time and two part-time staff.

Opening hours will be Monday to Sunday 11am to 11pm.
