EXTENSIONS are being planned for a Blandford industrial estate business.

Sydenhams Hire Centres on the Blandford Heights Industrial Estate has been granted planning consent for an extension on the north east and south west sides of its building.

The tool and plant hire business says the changes will provide a better lobby area at the entrance and increase its secure/dry storage space.

Other planning applications in the area, decided by Dorset Council, can be viewed on the council website by using the references provided.

Among the new applications are proposals for tree works at Dinah’s Hollow, Melbury Abbas, where the road has been subject to landslips and notification of a campsite for a local pub.
