GUIDE TO MAKING AN APPLICATION FOR LISTED BUILDING CONSENT

Information required with the application
The special character of a listed building is often derived from the smallest of details. The Council will not register or formally consider an application unless it contains adequate information to a professional standard, with a quality of detail sufficient to enable the Council to fully assess the impact of the work on the listed building.

Checklist
The following details will be required:

a. Location Plan - at a scale of 1:1250. The site must be outlined in red and shown in relation to property nearby. (Location plans are available for use in making a planning application from the Technical Support Team but a charge is made for this service.)

b. Block or Site Plan - at a scale of 1:500 showing the building as existing, plot boundaries, curtilage structures, trees, outlined areas of demolition etc.

c. Written, detailed schedule of works: to interior as well as exterior.

d. Written justification for works: this is especially required on applications to vary or discharge a condition attached to an existing listed building consent, and for total or partial demolition, indicating:
i) the minimum works necessary to preserve the building
ii) the additional works necessary to carry out the proposals
iii) full structural engineers survey, appraisal of the building and indication of necessary works to facilitate above.

e. Building plans, existing and proposed
Existing floor plans, elevations, sections
Proposed floor plans, elevations, sections
These should be accurate at a scale of 1:50 and fully annotated to show materials, construction methods, finishes and colours, and the relationship to adjoining buildings. With major alterations, extensions and demolition you should provide elevations of all sides of the building and internal plans and elevations.

f. Detail drawings
Alterations to or proposed new small scale features (e.g. doors, shopfronts, plaster mouldings etc.) should be indicated to a minimum scale of 1:20, these should include elevations and vertical and horizontal sections.

g. Photographs
It would be helpful if applications are accompanied by photographs these are particularly appropriate in all cases involving demolition and alterations affecting interior details.

Certificates
The Council cannot deal with your application unless you fill in a certificate of ownership. If you are the owner of the land or building Certificate A should be completed. Certificate B if you are not the owner and complete the Notice under Article 6 to the owner of the land or buildings. The Agricultural Holding Certificate should be completed in all cases. You do not actually have to own the land or buildings concerned to make an application, but you must fill in the appropriate certificate and serve any notices that relate to the certificate on the owners.
