Successful change of use of an unused chapel in Hurst Green, East Sussex 

Bloomfields are pleased to announce that approval has been granted for the change of use of an unused chapel in Hurst Green to Class E use, creating a new commercial space within the village.

The chapel, originally named Our Lady Help of Christians, closed in 2008. In the years following, it was let to the Parish Council as a community café, shop, and post office. However, after eight years, it was no longer viable to operate as a community business.

The chapel has now been let as a day nursery and is scheduled to open in April 2026, bringing a new and valuable service to the Hurst Green community.
