Former Nottinghamshire nursery to be demolished to make way for homes despite concerns over flooding

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.

Applicant The Buckinghams applied to Rushcliffe Borough Council for the development, which was approved during a planning committee meeting on December 8. Council officers said the site in Lady Bay was “challenging to develop”.

Nine councillors voted in favour and one voted against the plans for eight two-bedroom and one three-bedroom properties. There would also be an underground car park for 13 vehicles.
