WASTE ground in a village industrial estate could become home to six business units.

Scamper Holding SSAS has applied to East Lothian Council’s planning department for the erection of the units in Macmerry.

The proposed development would take place on the eastern edge of the industrial estate, to the south of the A199.

According to the proposals, the units would be a mix of class four (business), five (general industrial) and six (storage or distribution).

A decision is expected by the end of next month.
