A PLAN to turn a derelict shop into a food and drink store has been submitted to Darlington Borough Council.

London-based Investream has submitted the proposal for the empty Style Furnishings building in Crown Street.

Planning officer Andrew Harker said: "This application is just asking if the building can be used for food and drink.

"The applicant does not have to indicate yet what the building will be used for or what food and drink it will serve."
