Development History
11 September 2014: External inspection finds the building appears in generally fair condition but appears to have been disused for some time. There is minor slate damage to the roof, rainwater goodsa are rusted and gutters have weed growth, walls appear to be in good condition and timber elements would benefit from maintenance.
