Teaching Building

Status: Planning and Listed Building Consent

Category: Education

Location: York

Topics: Conservation Area, Listed Building, neighbour amenity

Two separate buildings housed each of these Departments in the Senior School but demand for these subjects crystallised the need for larger and more practical provision. 

Planning and listed building consent was achieved to demolish the older buildings situated within a conservation area, and replacement with a single, shared building on the same site. 

The attractive two storey building set on higher ground overlooks the cricket pitch and is close to houses of local residents. 

Issues that were resolved included adaptation of listed buildings in the Junior School to serve as temporary teaching space, liaison with local residents on impacts of construction and altered views, the impact on listed buildings and the conservation area.
