Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development upon the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to noise and disturbance and privacy
  • the effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposed development upon highway safety

What decided it

The cumulative effect of significant adverse impacts on neighbouring living conditions through noise and disturbance, harm to character and appearance through intensified activity, and unacceptable highway safety risks outweighed the benefits of providing early years childcare places.
