Development History
21 June 2012: External inspection finds the roof is in very poor condition, especially the North and East pitches where most of the slates and sarking have been lost. Gutters are broken. Some windows are boarded up.
17 September 2012: Local planners advise the property was fire damaged some time previously. The former lodge is subject to discussions on ownership.
3 October 2013: External inspection finds the fire-damaged building continues to deteriorate.
28 November 2018: Limited external inspection (in poor visibility) finds the building remains in much the same condition as seen previously - further slate loss is evident.
1 July 2021: A member of the public notes that the property may be up for marketing. Sale particulars are unclear whether lodge is included or not.
5 July 2021: Planning permission (19/02650/FUL) and listed building consent (19/02652/LBC) for erection of two houses including renovation of derelict building refused. Listed building consent (20/01536/LBC) submitted for modifications to listed building and structures as part of the site redevelopment and incorporation into housing - awaiting decision. Planning permission (20/01537/FUL) submitted for erection of two houses including renovation of derelict building - awaiting decision.
