Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the change of use on the supply of housing in the area and whether this would be outweighed by any other material considerations

What decided it

The negligible effect on housing supply from the loss of a single dwelling was outweighed by the substantial benefits of expanding an established nursery business and providing 15 additional childcare places to meet identified local community need.
