Dear Madam,

**PA19/00833/B WORKS DEPOT, EAST QUAY & CROWN STREET, PEEL**

Isle of Man Natural History & Antiquarian Society notes that this application seeks to change the layout of this complex of buildings.

While the Society has no objection to the creation of a new door on the north side into the yard area, they would respectfully point out that in line with the original street pattern and other buildings in the locality the layout was designed specifically so that entrances faced inward away from the sea and thus gained protection from sand, sea, shingle and wind. The Society believes that in the heart of the Conservation Area it is important to retain specific details that reflect that this historic design.

Isle of Man Natural History & Antiquarian Society would therefore seek a detailed design that shows a traditional wooden, albeit 'mock', door and doorway in front of the blocked up access onto Crown Street.

Yours faithfully,

**Redacted**

Hon Secretary Isle of Man Natural History and Antiquarian Society
