Our Response

24 Elm Place forms part of a Grade II early 19th century residential terrace, closely adjoined to the Grade II early 19th century Wellsway terrace, situated within the Bath conservation area and World Heritage site. It forms one of three, three storey dwellings in the middle of the otherwise two storey terrace, and forms an architectural viewpoint within the streetscape.

We would recommend that further contextualising information is provided regarding the window proposed for removal, such as its age and material integrity, for the benefit of further assessment by the LPA. Should this window be a non-historic addition, this could better justify the works proposed by demonstrating a lessened harm to historic fabric.
