Plans for a wine shop and hospitality venue offering tastings and events in Ipswich have been approved.

The application concerns Naamah House, 93-95 Fore Street, where permission was sought for the premises to operate through a combination of retail and hospitality uses.

The ground floor includes hospitality seating alongside a retail area selling wine and beer for takeaway and home delivery.

A larger area at the rear will be used for wine tastings, training and other events, while also providing additional hospitality seating when events are not taking place.

Further hospitality seating is provided upstairs, alongside toilets and a kitchen.

Documents submitted with the application say the premises had historically been used for retail, dating back to 1953, before also being used as offices.

Proposed opening hours listed in the application are 11am to 9pm for the retail operation and 11am to 11pm for hospitality, while training could take place between 8am and 9pm.

The plans also envisage employment increasing from one full-time and three part-time workers to two full-time and six part-time staff.
