New day nursery is planned for north Derbyshire town
A new day nursery planned for a Derbyshire town has won the support of council planners.
Leslie Harris, who trades as Tiny Tots Day Nursery, 1a Welbeck Road, Bolsover, is aiming to operate in the Bolsover Adult Community Education Centre on the town’s High Street. The opening hours of the proposed nursery would be 7.30am to 6pm, Monday to Friday (except bank holidays) closing for one week at Christmas each year.
His application for change of use has been certified lawful by Bolsover District Council.
Much of the preparation work will involve internal modifications to provide larger areas for child activities. A security fence will be installed to provide a safe play area outside, preventing access to intruders. Planning permission will be sought to ensure new fencing complies with the requirements of the Bolsover Conservation Area.
In his application, Mr Harris said that Derbyshire County Council acquired the property in 1992 for use as a child’s day nursery. At a later date it was used as a family support centre and most recently Children's Services Social Care used the premises. Part of the outdoor space comprises soft play area.
