One Stop Stores Ltd was granted permission by Scarborough Council last year to put its branding on 44 Sandside, next to Mutiny bar, ahead of the unit becoming the latest location for the chain.

The empty unit was once home to the Publishers Book Clearance store and then Rock and Gifts.

A premises licence has now been applied for, with sales of alcohol requested from 7am until 10pm from Monday to Sunday.
