A well known Chinese restaurant in Codocote may soon be converted into housing.
North Herts planners have given the go-ahead to a housing project at the As You Like It, which is in a listed building.
Permission was granted despite onjections from villagers.
The restaurant building will be changed into two three-bed houses, with a single-storey extension to the rear.
The existing rear extension and garage will be demolished.
An outbuilding will be converted in to a two-bed property.
And five two-bed mews houses will be built behind the car park, along with a garden wall, bin store and parking spaces.
There are many condiditions attached to the planning permission due to the building being listed.
