Plans to install a shipping container at a builder's merchant have been approved.

Travis Perkins, in Fakenham, has been given the go-ahead to install a shipping container at its site, which will be used as a welfare facility for its staff.

The applicant applied for the installation of the container on the merchant's plot on Hawthorn Way in August.

North Norfolk District Council gave the plans the greenlight, saying the "application accords with the relevant policies of the adopted development plans" and the application was not met with objection. 

The applicant has three years to undergo the development.
