Tel 01624 685950 Ellis Brown 12 Strathallan Crescent Queens Promenade Douglas IM2 4NR TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING ACT 1999 The Town and Country Planning (Registered Buildings) Regulations 2013 In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act, and subordinate Orders and Regulations, the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture determined to REFUSE an application by Celtic Investments Limited, Ref 19/00377/CON, for the Registered Building consent for internal works and refurbishment of building (in association with 15/00065/CON) Registered Building Nos. 59 at 3 The Parade Castletown Isle Of Man IM9 1LG for the following reason(s): 1. Proposals to alter Registered Buildings should be developed based on an understanding of what is significant about a building to avoid any unnecessary impact. There are historic elements including cupboards that would be affected by proposed internal wall insulation. It is considered that the application has not identified those important surviving elements of the building, which need to be considered properly when developing proposals of this nature and there are conflicting messages about what materials should be used; assessed whether insulation/tanking is the right approach in this instance given the above advice contained within the HE guidance. As such, it is considered that the proposals fail to accord with Environment Policies 32 and 34 and Planning Policy Statement 1/01 RB/3 and RB/5. Date of Issue: 17th November 2020 Director of Planning and Building Control
