Bell Cornwell Projects
Demolition and New Build in a Conservation Area – Maidenhead,
Berkshire
Site Location: Maidenhead
Client: Octagon Bespoke Ltd
Local Authority: Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead
|
Planning and Conservation Area consent has been granted in the
Maidenhead Riverside Conservation Area (MRCA) for demolition of an
existing house and the erection of a replacement dwelling. Bell
Cornwell LLP assisted Octagon Bespoke Ltd on behalf of private
clients who applied for Planning and Conservation Area Consent to
demolish an unlisted building within the MRCA and replace it with a
new bespoke-built single family dwelling. In planning terms the
application was a one-for-one replacement. In flood protection terms
the replacement was on a like-for-like footprint.
In heritage terms the application was for the replacement of one
older ‘positive’ building with a new ‘positive’ building to enhance
the character and appearance of the Conservation Area.
The unlisted building known as Hampton Lodge had been identified
in a recently adopted Conservation Area appraisal as a 'significant
non-listed building' and described as being of the early 20th
century arts and crafts design style. |
