Development description

Protected structure: planning permission for development at the site, which is a protected structure (register of protected structures ref. No. 7656). The development will consist repair, restoration, refurbishment and extension work to the existing terraced two storey house with two storey rear annex. The works will include the careful removal of white upvc framed windows and reinstatement of historically accurate timber sash windows throughout. It will include removal of upvc gutters, downpipes and rainwater fittings to be replaced with cast iron rainwater goods. It will include repair of internal joinery and replication of original surviving joinery details. Also included will be repair of plaster cornicing and replacement of cornices where they have been removed. The extension is proposed to the rear of the house and will be single storey with brick facades and a zinc roof. It will require partial demolition of a rear kitchen & walls at ground floor. A glazed box connection is proposed to connect the extension into the existing rear reception room and the opening up of an original window opening into a doorway. A small courtyard will be formed and the extension is designed to retain the historic form of the protected structure. The development will include internal alterations as set out in the general arrangement plans and a new conservation style velux window in the annex. It will include all associated ancillary works, landscaping and services.
