    Zoning at the site

    LC - Local Centre: Provide a mix of local community and commercial facilities for the existing and developing communities of the County. The aim is to ensure local centres contain a range of community, recreational and retail facilities, including medical/dental surgeries and childcare facilities, at a scale to cater for both existing residential development and zoned undeveloped lands, as appropriate, at locations which minimise the need for use of the private car and encourage pedestrians, cyclists and the use of public transport. The development will strengthen local retail provision in accordance with the County Retail Strategy.

    M3 — Neighbourhood centre

    LC - Local Centre: Protect, provide for and/or improve local centre facilities

    A local centre: shops, services and apartments over them, serving the surrounding housing.

    R2 — Existing residential

    RS - Residential: Provide for residential development and protect and improve residential amenity

    An established residential area. The objective is to protect existing residential amenity as well as to provide housing — which is the objective a neighbour's objection to an overbearing extension is usually argued under.
