Plans have been submitted to Tameside Council to change the use of a doctor’s surgery into a nursery.
If plans were accepted by the council, the site at Birch Lane, in Dukinfield, would be transformed into a day nursery for children. No decisions have been made on the proposals put forward by Wacky woo day nursery Ltd.
According to the planning application, no physical changes are required to make the building a viable nursery. The GP surgery’s rental lease came to an end this year.
