A Tesco spokesperson said: “We are hoping to open a new Tesco Express in Horsham and have submitted a licensing application for the store.

“We will be sure to keep the local community updated as our plans progress.”

The former post office building has been empty since the post office moved into premises within WH Smith in Swan Walk shopping centre in March 2017.
