Plans to change the use of waste disposal land east of Ipswich into a site for storage containers has been approved by the council.

East Suffolk Council have approved the retrospective plans which will see land south of the former village hall in Brightwell Road turned into a storage site.

The approval means three storage containers will be legally allowed on the grounds for company Acorn Tree Services - a business that offers tree services.

Planning documents state that the site is accessed from the Brightwell Road and no change is proposed to that arrangement or to the specifics of the access detail as it presently exists.

The access accommodates the level of vehicle movements generated by the development which amounts to no more than approximately 6 to 10 vehicle movements per day in total.

If Acorn Tree Services ceases to exist, the change of use will cease as well with immediate effect.

The site has a history of commercial use. Originating as a sand pit, the site went forward to become a waste disposal site for a considerable number of years.
