Proposal
External alterations for the removal of fibreglass canopy roof covering and replacement with welted lead.
Our Response The ambition to replace the canopy with a lead version is supported as it will enhance the special interest of the listed building. Our only concern would be the retention of the glazed section. Whilst we understand why the glazed section exists (to provide more light for the window below), it does detract somewhat from the appearance of the canopy and thus the architectural significance of the asset and the appearance of the front elevation.
