A nursery situated in a historic building can finally get an outdoor play area after getting the green light from Wigan Council, despite objectors bidding to stop it.
Woodland Adventure Nursery in Tyldesley can now install a 1.2m high fence and soft play surfacing to form an enclosed play area. As the site is based within Dam House, which was built by Adam Mort and Margaret Mort in 1650, the nursery required both listed building consent and planning permission before construction could start.
Dam House is a Grade II* listed building which contains offices, and a café as well as Woodland Adventure Nursery.
