Plan to turn town's TSB bank into takeaway

A former town centre bank may soon be serving calzones instead of cash, as plans to convert it into a takeaway were revealed.

TSB on Market Place in Normanton town centre, closed for good last summer.

Now a planning application to change the disused building into a takeaway and four flats has been put forward to Wakefield Council.

The proposal, submitted by a man based in Howden, suggests the development would include two one-bed apartments and two two-bed apartments.
