A PLANNING application to turn a gastro pub in Flintshire into homes is amongst the latest submitted to the council.

The proposal is for a change in use of The Druid Inn, off Wrexham Road in Pontblyddyn, to two dwelling houses. 

It will include associated minor alterations to the external appearance of the building, erection of new means of enclosure and landscape works.

The pub was put on the market in August 2021, just four years after undergoing significant investment.
