An application has been submitted by the company RAD for the change of use at 510 Huddersfield Road from a taxi base to a new hot-food and dessert shop.

The premises – on the corner of Huddersfield Road and Great Pond Street in Dewsbury – was previously the site of the taxi base Five Star Cars, and has been vacant for several years.

A document submitted as part of the application states the shop will sell ready-made desserts, including cakes and brownies, as well as ready-made curries, with future plans to prepare smaller items on-site such as fries and donuts.
