Planning consent was granted in November 2000 for the change of use from the Honor Oak Nursery to cemetery use. This application covered all of 'Area B' and 'Area A' to the north. The permission was implemented in 2001 by virtue of a extension of the existing cemetery between
35 the Park and the former nursery. Parts of the site have since been used for storage and maintenance that is ancillary to the wider workings of the cemetery. As a result, cemetery use is the lawful use of the site.

'Area B' to which this application principally relates is a 1.51 hectare area in the south-eastern corner of the broader cemetery site, sitting adjacent to Honor Oak Park. The site was formerly occupied by a horticultural nursery and training centre, though the greenhouses and other structures were demolished in 1990. At present, the site is largely a combination of hardstanding and concrete foundations associated with the former uses and grassland. It also
contains a council site compound, a vehicular access route to Honor Oak Park and a car park serving the cemetery and the adjoining allotments and sports ground. Area B is currently fenced off with no public access.

The Council's Recommendation is GRANT PERMISSION
