A former Keswick butchers and deli is set to be transformed into a Greggs.
The chain has applied for planning permission to convert the former Thomasons shop on Station Street into its new site.
It plans to move out of its current store on Market Square to the new premises.
The butchers shop has been vacant since brothers Bryan and Malcolm Thomason decided to hang up their aprons last year.
Greggs has lodged planning applications with the Lake District National Park Authority for advertising signs and to transform the interior into a bakery.
A Greggs spokesman said: “Within the next few months, we’ll be relocating from Market Square to a new and improved shop on Station Street.
“While we are unable to share any additional details at the moment, we will be sure to share further information in the coming months.”
Greggs said it would not be changing the shop’s exterior, instead it would be kept and refinished.
A side door would be replaced by a steel security door and a roller shutter installed.
The front of the ground floor will be used for sales and the rest of the building will be for food preparation, staff rooms and toilets.
It is not clear from the plans if seating will be included in the new bakery.
One of the signs, the planning application said, would be “a heritage hanging sign”.
