A GARDEN centre wants to relocate its ornamental carp pond to make way for an extension to provide more toilets.

Raglan Garden Centre is seeking planning permission for the extension on a paved area currently covered by a canopy. It would be a single storey extension to increase its current toilet provision.

The area is currently used for storing bags of plant compost as well as being the home to the ornamental fish pond which would be relocated.

A statement submitted with the planning application to Monmouthshire County Council explains: “The existing site is paved with no existing flora. The existing ornamental pond containing carp is to be relocated and therefore there are no demolitions that could impact on fauna.”

The toilets would have a package treatment plant and would be connected to the existing drainage system.

Consultation deadline is Thursday, May 14.
