A KFC restaurant in Southend is in line for a refurbishment.
Bosses at the fast-food chain have submitted two planning applications in the hope to give their site at the Greyhound Retail Park a fresh new look.
The proposals include the installation of a delivery pod extension to the side of the restaurant, as well as a new front entrance.
Dark timber cladding will be added to the external walls of the restaurant to give it a sleek new look.
New KFC signs will also be installed under the plans, along with additional signage in the car park.
The alterations are unlikely to create any additional seating or space for customers.
No comments have yet been made by consultees or members of the public regarding the proposals.
Southend Council will have the final say on the scheme.
It comes after plans to build a block of flats next to the Greyhound Retail Park in Southend have been given the go ahead.

Argent Developers Ltd will be demolishing the Patterson Worktops site in Sutton Road and replacing it with 22 new flats.
The complex will be made up of one to three-bedroom flats, all offering balconies and parking for one vehicle.
The building itself will be five-storeys high and will help ‘improve the area’, according to the applicant.
