The Town and Country Planning (Registered Buildings) Regulations 2013

In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Regulations the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture has considered an application by Mr Roy & Mrs Susan Tilleard, Ref 15/01318/CON, for the de-registration of Lorne House Douglas Street Castletown Isle Of Man IM9 1AZ (12/00269/REGBLD) in accordance with 7(1)(a) of the (Registered Buildings) Regulations 2013.

The Department has determined to APPROVE the application for the following reasons:

1. The protected extents afforded by the original entry of Lorne House in the Protected Buildings Register has been legally challenged.

   The Department has determined to place the registration on a secure legal footing and therefore redefine the protected building status to the footprint of Lorne House dwelling and the entrance archway, only.

2. In processing this matter the progression includes:

   • Confirmation of the removal of Lorne House from the register under reference RB269
   • In seeking to place the registration of Lorne House and the Entrance Archway on a secure legal footing a new registration process has been initiated under reference RB287 and RB288, coinciding with this decision.
   • Whilst both recommendations are progressed a Building Preservation Notice has been served on the property owners pending conclusion of the registration process and revised extents of the Departments protection.
