Plans to demolish and rebuild a garden centre have been submitted to Chichester District Council.
The application for Hillier Garden Centre, between Fishbourne and Bosham, is the result of numerous proposals to improve the ageing site.#
If approved, the old centre will make way for an energy efficient new one, complete with solar panels, a timber framed poly-tunnel covering a plant market, parking for 239 cars and nine spaces for electric vehicle charging.
A statement submitted with the application said:
“This expansion would enhance the centre’s current contribution to the local economy together with creating a more environmentally sustainable centre, to align with Hillier’s environmental policy.
“This would include improvements to sustainable travel options to the centre and the creation of new, diverse and native landscaping.”
