Ashwell Conservation Area Character Appraisal and Management Plan

Ashwell Conservation Area Character Appraisal and Management Plan

Representation ID: 10241

Received: 04/09/2022

Respondent: Mr Magnus Willatts

Representation Summary:

I would like to contribute to the consultation on the above CAAMP. My interest is as a land owner.

I refer to Figure 12 on page 22 of the CAAMP and the accompanying text on Page 21. I draw attention to Item 6: The Orchard, West End. I would comment as follows:

• The proposal suggests an extension to the CA to include the entire listed building (Official Listing 1175465) while continuing to exclude the industrial buildings. The extended area on the plan is not in alignment with this statement - the area (blue on P22) now includes one of the industrial buildings and the concrete driveway servicing the works. Please refer to the attached image - ‘The Orchard CA Extension’. The Red area shows the existing conservation area; the green area shows the proposed extension; the blue area shows the correct listed building extent.
• The Historic England Listing for the property describes the proposed additional part of the building as follows: “Large C20 extension on left is not of special interest.” As such I would request that no extension to the conservation area is necessary and point out that the extra building does not fulfil conservation area criteria of “special architectural and historic interest”.
