BPT cannot make informed comments on the proposed internal changes to this property. However, we have noticed that minimal information has been provided regarding the intended repair of the wrought iron railings that form part of the building’s distinctive façade, as well as being specifically referred to as part of the listing entry. Therefore, we would encourage that further descriptions of the proposed railing repairs are included as part of the application with regards as to how these changes might either impact or enhance the historic appearance of a listed building.
