Site Report: The Building Planning Schedule Date: 10/08/2004 Large detached house, Grade II* and first listed in 1960. Dating from the late C15 with two major C17 phases, one being a well-documented addition of 1698 as part of alterations to form a Charity School. Built in random and coursed rubble limestone under a stone slate roof, this is a hollow square building with a high walled courtyard forming the fourth side. Contains many surviving internal features and includes alterations of 1909 by Sidney Barnsley for Henry Payne, the stained glass artist. The Studio, designed by Barnsley for Payne in 1911 (copy of original drawing on file) is a curtilage building to the Grade II* house. It is built of random rubble limestone under a stone slate roof. The Application This application is for alterations and extensions to The Studio. Consultees English Heritage objected to the original submission, re iterating what they said about a previous application. They felt that the proposals were too extensive for this modest building. They also said that the applicants should establish the significance of the structure before developing a scheme more appropriate for its importance. Policy Considerations These are taken from PPG 15 "Planning and the Historic Environment." Paragraph 3.12, says "In judging the effect of any alteration or extension it is essential to have assessed the elements that make up the special interest of the building in question." Paragraph C.58 says; "the plan of a building is one of its most important characteristics. Interior plans and individual features of interest should be respected and left unaltered as far as possible. Internal spaces.......are part of the special interest of a building and may be its most valuable feature." Paragraph C.7 says, " Modern extensions should not dominate the existing buildings in term of scale, material or situation. There will always be some historic buildings where any extensions would be damaging and should not be permitted. Successful extensions require the application of an intimate knowledge of the building type that is being extended together with a sensitive handling of scale and detail." Conclusions Planning Permission for the use of The Studio as a separate dwelling has already been granted but these proposals are alterations to create living accommodation for dependant relatives. The scale of the proposed extension has been reduced in terms of its footprint and height with the aim of ensuring that the extension was genuinely subservient to the parent building. Your Officers believe that this reduction in size has met the English Heritage objection. The applicants were asked to provide more information about the nature of their alterations, especially in respect of the works to the interior of the building, where it is essential that the important original features be preserved. The additional information received on 3/06/04 confirms that no important original features will be harmed. The alterations are largely confined to the 212
Planning Schedule Date: 10/08/2004 removal of later additions, which are not of special interest. The restoration of the large glazed screen on the North elevation to the original Barnsley design will be a gain. The design of the extension is complementary to the parent building yet made distinct by the use of a glazed link. The external alterations will cause no harm to the setting of the Grade II* listed house. Accordingly you are recommended to grant listed building consent for these works. As this is a Grade II* Building the application will have to be referred to the Government Office before a decision is issued. . In compiling this recommendation we have given full consideration to all aspects of the Human Rights Act 1998 in relation to the applicant and/or the occupiers of any neighbouring or affected properties. In particular regard has been had to Article 8 of the ECHR (Right to Respect for private and family life) and the requirement to ensure that any interference with the right in this Article is both permissible and proportionate. On analysing the issues raised by the application no particular matters, other than those referred to in this report, warranted any different action to that recommended. 213
