Change of use from a dwelling (C3 use) to a children's care home (C2 use), providing full-time residential care and accommodation for a maximum of one child (aged 8-17 years). Care and supervision will be provided 24 hours a day, seven days a week, by a small team of suitably qualified, non-resident staff working on a rota basis. The property will operate as the child's principal home, retaining its existing domestic layout, residential character and appearance. No building works, extensions, external alterations, machinery installations or changes to the existing access and parking arrangements are proposed. The proposed use will operate continuously, with staffing arrangements and shift changes varying according to the individual care requirements of the child.

T002 - Oak Suggested Works: Dismantle in stages to near ground level G003 - Ash Suggested Works: Dismantle in stages 2x trees to near ground level The Oak has reduced vitality and is suppressed by the neighbouring trees, not worthy of retention. The two Ash trees have been subjected to significant pruning on the field side due to a new infrastructure installation. The trees are now side weighted over the highway and also exhibit signs of decline, potentially due to Ash Dieback Disease. Due to the natural regeneration expected here we don't consider a replanting condition appropriate in this instance.
