MAJOR plans to build an Aldi supermarket and ten houses on High Street, Royston, have been approved.
The plans are for a supermarket with parking, landscaping and ten houses. The land was once used as a factory but has been vacant since 2009.
Coun Tim Cheetham said: "When Aldi held hefty public consultations, their feedback showed more than 95 per cent of people who attended were in favour of the plans."

We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
