Assessment / Recommendation

I have considered the content of the application with particular consideration to Policy RB/5 Alterations and Extensions to a Registered Building as set out in Planning Policy Statement 1/01.

The applicant seeks to form an opening from the Hallway into the Kitchen which will involve removal of and blocking up of the door into what the applicant calls the Day Lounge. I consider that the alterations are relatively minor and would not affect the character of the registered building.

I would ask that the new doorway utilises the architetraving and door removed. If this is not possible, then a new door and architraving should be made to match that door in every detail.

I therefore Recommend Approved.
