A FORMER social club in Salisbury could be replaced with a small Asian supermarket after new plans have been submitted.
The plans submitted to Wiltshire Council detail the ambition to also create a café, nail salon and massage parlour at the Grade II listed former Salisbury Cycling Social Club on the corner of Salt Lane and Rolleston Street.
Asian supermarkets are popular across the UK as they often provide items that are not usually found in traditional UK supermarkets.
Applicant Lucky Fu Asianmart said the plans aim to “preserve and enhance the character of the listed building while providing for modern use.”
Salisbury Cycling Social Club closed in August 2024.

Alterations to the front of the building would see a new main entrance created using a wooden double door, and new signs would be created which would be lit externally.
The new front entrance would also see an accessible entrance created for wheelchair users, as the existing entrance on Salt Street is described as limited to wheel chair users due to the narrow width of the doorway.
The plans said: “The proposed development is designed to respect and enhance the character of the listed building while providing for its sustainable future use.”
