DM/2023/01056 LBC – The proposal is to construct a new roof over the existing roof within the circular chimney towards the lefthand side of the building. This will provide a fall to an enlarged outlet to prevent water pooling on the roof covering
and causing dampness within the building. Currently the access to the chimney is small and present numerous health and safety risks. We propose to lower the
existing ceiling and constructing a ceiling with joists to provide a safe and secure walking surface to the access door and additionally enlarge the access door to the chimney for maintenance purposes.
