Sex shop decision delayed
Plans for a controversial new sex shop in a Suffolk town have been delayed.

Suffolk Coastal District Council had been expected to approve the plans for the members-only club in Wickham Market at a meeting on Wednesday.

Instead, councillors have decided to look at the proposed site of the shop on the Riverside Industrial Estate.

Local residents have written almost 70 letters of objection to the plans.

They say it would be inappropriate for the town and would attract the wrong kind of people.

Wickham Market Parish Council has also expressed its concern, saying the sex shop would be too close to homes.
