A former nursery will be demolished to build nine new homes
, despite concerns raised by residents and councillors. The former Wishing Well Day Nursery in Oakfields Road, Lady Bay, will be converted into homes despite worries over the site being at high risk of flooding.
A resident objecting to the application said: “The buildings are totally out of character with the rest of the road. “I am not opposed to affordable new homes being built, I am not a NIMBY but the new proposed homes have fewer parking bays than bedrooms. This will exacerbate the parking issues already present on Oakfields Road.
“Many people feel it is out of keeping with the area. It is predominately Victorian housing. There is concern that people will have more than one car and there will be further pressure on the area. I do welcome the underground parking.”
