Family-run convenience store Margiotta is “interested” in plans for a new shop in Longniddry, East Lothian.
The plans, which come from Lord Wemyss Trust, could see agricultural buildings at the heart of a new housing development become a shop.
Hundreds of new houses are being built in Longniddry, south of the East Coast Mainline, which cuts through the village.
Drawings included as part of the planning application show the layout of an existing Margiotta store.
A spokesperson for the retailer told East Lothian Courier that discussions had taken place with the developer.
They added: “We have shown an interest but it is too early to do anything about; planning consent has not been received.”
