A store in an historic shopping parade at Reading’s Cemetery Junction could gain new signage if an application is approved.
Tesco opened an Express store in the Crown Colonnade in London Road, East Reading, nearly 10 years ago, after a bid by KiwkSave was withdrawn.
The company took over the premises from the London Road Post Office, which moved to a smaller site on the other side of the road.
Tesco has applied to Reading Borough Council to replace the current wood-panelled logo with a new white aluminium box.
It also wants to replace signs for the 24-hour cash machine and another projecting sign with Tesco branding.
The Colonnade was once next to an ABC Cinema, known as the ABC Granby to avoid confusion with the one in Reading town centre.
However, that building has long since been demolished.
