The key consideration was whether the proposed demolition works would adversely impact the character and appearance of the Conservation Area.
Environmental Policy 39
Requires general presumption in favour of retaining buildings making positive contribution to Conservation Area character. Officer assessed demolition of roof and windows/doors, finding no adverse impact as works are like-for-like or enhancing, confined to less visible areas, and do not affect key features.
CA/6 Demolition in Conservation Areas
Prohibits demolition in Conservation Areas without consent, presuming against buildings positively contributing to character; allows consideration of replacement merits for detracting buildings. Officer applied similar criteria to RB/6, determining works acceptable given enhancement and no harm to surroundings or area as a whole.
Time limit
The works hereby granted registered building consent shall be begun before the expiration of four years from the date of this consent. Reason: To comply with paragraph 2(2)(a) of schedule 3 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1999 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented registered building consents.
