BORDERERS could soon be able to wake up and smell the coffee at a Peebles car park.

A planning bid has been submitted to Scottish Borders Council for a coffee van, trading as Braw Brew, to park up and trade in a space at the Kingmeadows car park.

In a submission with her application the applicant, Melanie-Jo Dunbar, says: “I propose to trade with my coffee van in the space allocated to me in the Kingsmeadows car park.

“I have been granted permission to use the space by the Common Goods committee, and also have my permissions from the licensing department at Scottish Borders Council.”
