Former Filling Station to be Transformed into Garden Centre

Planning Permission in Principle has recently been applied for the demolition of the former derelict Hillside Petrol Filling Station at Portlethen to be replaced with a proposed garden centre and associated car parking (artists impression of proposed building above).

The derelict building on the east side of Portlethen has deteriorated since it was last operated approximately 9 years ago and has become an eyesore and a magnet for vandalism.

We are looking forward to progressing these exciting proposals resulting in regeneration of the site while providing a contemporary and sustainable building designed in such a way to minimise any visual impact on its surroundings. 

We will keep you informed on the planning application progress, if you wish to make a comment on the application via Aberdeenshire Council Planning please do so.
