The owners of a Swaffham pub have drafted plans to see whether councillors will agree to the principle of converting the building into a house.
The draft proposals are to convert the pub for residential use, with part of an existing rear extension demolished to maximise the size of the garden. Meanwhile, a new detached house is proposed to be built on the current car park.
Although the ideas are at a very early stage, pub campaigners said they were saddened at the possibility that the Norfolk Hero could become one of the 39 pubs estimated to be closing every week across the country.
No specific details have been submitted about the design of the proposed house, but the planning statement says it would reflect the appearance of the pub.
