When ever a planning application pops up for former Conservative Councillor Peter Jones it
always amuses me how Oakham Town Councillors who know him pretend to not know him.
The last time silly old Cllr Lucas said is that not the man who owns some sort of second hand goods shop in
Mill Street?
It looks like Swans Antiques is hoping to move out of Mill Steet into the splendid Georgion
High Street property which once the former councillors home and B&B.
Despite local rumours he does not own the thatched properties in Mill Street. They are owned by a rich
lady with horses.
Its not the first attempt to move, he tried to aquire the former Woosters but was gazumped by Otters Deli.
If the move happens I do hope TV star Tom won't insist on hanging that Swan on the outside of the splendid Georgian building.
Oakham Town Council will be having their say on the application on Wednesday at 7pm Victoria Hall.
Part of the Terrace
2013/1103/FUL Mr P Jones
Change of use from C3 (Residential) to A1 (Retail) in front three floors and retain self
contained residential in rear two storey part
76 High Street
2013/1105/LBA Mr P Jones
Minor internal alterations with external signage and lighting
76 High Street
This application will be interesting because so far none of the firms that operate from
this listed terrace have been granted planning permission for lights or signs so you
have to look carefully to find them from language translator, dentist to solicitor.
