The newly proposed works consist of; Conservation and restoration works to the original historic bank building – A Protected Structure – remain as granted and include: the refurbishment of existing windows and doors; the refurbishment of existing roof finishes; the refurbishment of historic ceilings; and refurbishment works to the existing façade including re-painting works. Minor internal alterations to existing walls and doors are also proposed to accommodate the proposed new use. Alterations to the existing single-storey flat roof extension to the rear and side of the building are proposed to include: the provision of a new pitched roof in part; internal alterations to accommodate the proposed new use; alterations to the Marsh’s Street elevation and the rear elevation; and the provision of new high-performance glazing and doors. Design amendments associated with this application are confined to the external rear courtyard. The previously approved demolition of two existing single-storey structures is no longer proposed; instead, these buildings are proposed to be retained and reused to accommodate the storage, preparation and processing of ceramics-related materials. The previously permitted pitched-roof structure and covered walkway are proposed to be amended to a lightweight timber-framed covered walkway connecting the outbuildings and the existing vehicular entrance on Marsh’s Street. A new pedestrian entrance and path is proposed from the rear public carpark to the building.
