"It is considered that the proposal is of an acceptable design that would have minimal impact upon the amenities of the surrounding residential properties.

"The proposal would comply with the above-mentioned local policies contained within the Borough of Crewe and Nantwich Local Plan 2011, the Cheshire East Local Plan Strategy, as well as the National Planning Policy Framework, and Site Allocations and Development Policies Document.

"As such, the proposal is considered to be acceptable and is therefore recommended for approval subject to conditions."
