We note that the information request does not raise any issues with the proposed use for a medical
centre. The site is ideally located for the medical use being opposite the Eden private hospital and
adjoining the town centre. Three medical tenancies are proposed with the core tenant being for
radiology and imaging purposes. It is intended that the other medical uses will be specialist medical
