THE one-time Royal British Legion in Ludlow is set to become an upmarket boutique.

A planning application has been lodged that would see the lower floor of the building in Mill Street become a shop that sells clothes, bags and toy bears.

Douglas Attire, a family business based at Llandeilo in south Wales, wants to open a second shop in Ludlow.

The plans envisage that the ground floor would become the shop and office and the second floor would be a one-bedroom flat.

There has been speculation about the future of Victory House since the Royal British Legion moved out.
