The new McDonald’s is expected to create 20 full-time and 40 part-time jobs, according to plans previously approved by Pendle Borough Council. Parking space is earmarked for 40 cars.

The drive-thru restaurant planning application was submitted by Future Properties Limited with agent Campbell Driver Partnership.

Speaking in July, a spokesman for Future Properties Limited, which owns Pendle Rise shopping mall, said: “This sale represents an important investment in the town centre. The new McDonald’s will attract people into the town and also help wider changes taking place.”
