Councillors have agreed a former pub can be turned into an office.

Caerus Care has been given planning permission to convert the former Six Ringers public house at Leverington near Wisbech.

A report to councillors recommended approval. It said the application was retrospective because the building, on Gorefield Road, was already being used as an office by the business, which is a care agency providing supported living services.

It said there would be no major changes to the building, adding: "The development will bring a previously vacant building in a prominent location back into use."

Three letters of support were received by Fenland Council. There were no objections.

The report to councillors said eight full-time employees work from the building from 8.30am - 4.30pm, Mondays to Fridays.

Plans for a house of multiple occupation on the same site were withdrawn last year.
