The proposal, lodged by LNT Care Developments, outlines an application for a 66-bed facility for "older people" at 107 Colney Heath Lane. Documents attached to plans show that new vehicle access, landscaping, parking, and additional site buildings would be erected. The site covers 2.38 acres of Green Belt land and forms part of the rear garden of an existing property. Previous planning approvals for the site include consent for 13 and 26 dwellings, but the care home is intended to meet growing demand for specialist care accommodation in the area. There are no listed buildings on or immediately adjoining the application site, although several exist nearby along Colney Heath Lane.
