The Government's Planning Inspectorate has approved a planning appeal for a new Aldi supermarket in Polegate after the local council rejected it a year earlier.

The planning appeal for the proposed Aldi supermarket at Eastbourne Road, Polegate has been allowed by the Government's Planning Inspectorate. This comes despite the local council rejecting the same plans approximately a year earlier.

The approval represents a reversal of the council's earlier decision. The development also includes proposals for a care home at the site.
