A children’s nursery near Lichfield could be moving home if planning chiefs give the scheme the go-ahead.

Plans have been submitted to Lichfield District Council for the Elswick House Nursery to be relocated to Park Barn on Fisherwick Wood Lane where an agricultural building would be re-used for the business.

The nursery is currently based at Fisherwick Road in Whittington, but concerns over access and safety have led to the relocation proposals.

A planning statement supporting the application says:

> “It is anticipated that Park Barn will enable Elswick House Nursery to increase the level of staff by 5 and thus enable the Nursery to increase the daily intake to 50 children on site at any one time. It is anticipated that this will be done on a phased basis.”

Residents can have their say on the proposals via [Lichfield District Council’s online planning website](http://www.lichfielddc.gov.uk/site/scripts/planning%5Fdetails.php?id=16589&ref=lichfieldlive.co.uk).
