Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development represents an inappropriate intensification of the use of the site, with particular regard to accessibility and its effects on living conditions for neighbouring residents (notably noise disturbance)

What decided it

The combination of inadequately demonstrated need for a childcare facility at this location and the unacceptable intensification of the use of the property resulting in adverse impacts on neighbouring residents' living conditions, particularly from traffic disturbance and noise.
