Search the Public Notice PortalRetrospective plans for an Ipswich pub to install several storage containers next to the building have been approved by the council.
East Suffolk Council have approved plans for The Swan Inn in Westerfield Road to install six storage containers on land to the rear of the pub.
The approval comes despite neighbours revealing that the containers have been in place for more than a year without planning permission.
Planning documents stated: "The containers are used in conjunction with the public house for additional storage and will therefore only be used during the opening hours of the public house.
"There is no external lighting within the site and no proposal to add any lighting."
The containers are each 2.4m wide x 6m long x 2.6m high and are finished in dark green metal cladding.
