Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed change of use on the living conditions of occupants of adjoining residential properties, with particular reference to noise

What decided it

The Noise Impact Assessment demonstrated that noise levels from the proposed day nursery would not exceed relevant British Standards or WHO guidelines and would represent a non-significant change from baseline levels, with the existing office use being a permissible comparator in a mixed-use area.
