Despite the planning committee approving the application there were several concerns raised by councillors in the meeting. Local ward member Cllr Yvonne Forsey said she had received concerns from residents about traffic movements and the visual impact of the development. Cllr Forsey queried in the meeting the number of traffic movements that the planning report said the development would generate in comparison to the former pub. She said: “If the pub had generated 49 cars between 5pm and 6pm daily then it would still be open. “The sort of traffic generated by the pub is completely different to the sort of traffic generated by 21 flats.”
