The application does not seek to alter the existing retail spaces within Bear Lanes Shopping Centre, or the frontage of the building.

Planning officers at Powys County Council have approved the scheme, with the condition that 20% of the units become affordable housing.

The plans will create three two bed residential apartments and two one bed residential apartments.

Town councillors also supported the plans back in May.
