A NEW high-end bakery could fill an empty shop building in Salisbury if plans are approved.

The former Tiger shop at the Poultry Cross is subject to plans which would see it transformed into a Gail’s bakery – offering tasty treats, salads and sandwiches.

The unit has been empty since the Danish retailer Tiger closed back in December 2022.

The latest plans have proposed to replace the existing shopfront and fascia with a new glazed and timber framed shopfront and a new reconstituted stone shopfront fascia with retractable canopies.

The new shopfront will retain a recessed entrance to Poultry Cross and an additional recessed shopfront entrance and fixed seating to shopfront recess are proposed for the Ox Row side of the site.

The plans say the new Ox Row entrance will alleviate pressure to the front of the site and improve customer experience and flow within the proposed bakery.

Gail’s Ltd says the plans represent a “positive enhancement” to the site on prime shopping frontage and would result in no harm to the conservation area.
