Scheme description

Removal and repair or replacement of vault doors and frames.

Why it was refused
Reason 1

Because of loss of fabric and detailed design the replacement doors would harm the special interest of this grade I listed building. This would be against the advice set out in Policy 44 of the City Plan 2019 - 2040 (January 2026) and the advice set out in our Supplementary Planning Guidance: Repairs and Alterations to Listed Buildings. (X18AD)

Reason 2

Your drawings do not include enough details of existing doors for us to assess how your plans would affect the building. We believe that the work could harm the special interest of the building. This would not meet Policies 42 and 45 of the City Plan 2019 - 2040 (January 2026) and the advice set out in our Supplementary Planning Guidance: Repairs and Alterations to Listed Buildings. (X22BD)
