SALE OF PROPERTIES The legal formalities in connection with the sale of Trust properties to the various Local Authorities were completed during the year, and trans­ actions have been made as follows: Windles Square, Calverton-sold to the Gedling Borough Council Rempstone Cottages-sold to the Borough Council Ivy Cottage, 65 Main Street, Normanton-on-Soar Sunnyside Cottages, Southwell-sold to the Nottinghamshire County Coul1ci I

4 5 The sale of these properties has enabled the Trust to realise moneys which would otherwise have been tied up in buildings, and will thus make it possible for us to expand our activities in our traditional sphere of offering grants to the owners of individual properties. ~ Negotiations have also commenced for the sale of Bede House Chapel, together with its adjoining land, on which planning consent has now been obtained for the erection of old people's dwellings.

CONSERVATION AREA ADVISORY COMMITTEES The Trust took the initiative in convening a meeting with representatives of the District Councils and the Nottinghamshire County Council to review the whole question of consultation on planning applications affecting Con­ servation Areas. It was noted that some Districts already had their own Conservation Area Advisory Committees or their equivalent; that others were in the process of setting them up; and some were not proposing to establish them. The Trust will be keeping this matter under continual review, and a further County-wide meeting of technical representatives will be convened at the appropriate time. Meanwhile, the Trust is continuing to provide technical advisory services to those Districts which have not yet established their own advisory machinery.

PUBLIC INQUIRIES AND 'LISTED' BUILDINGS During 1975/76 the Trust has been represented at the following Public Inquiries: The Guide House (Lodge Farm), Arnold application to demolish refused by Secretary of State Park Farm House and Outbuildings, application to demolish-decision Loughborough Road, Bunny awaited Land adjacent to Forge Farm, Toad Lane, application to erect one detached house Epperstone and garage--permission granted Town Hall and 8 Potter Street application to demolish-permission granted 19 and 19a Potter Street, Worksop application to demolish-decision awaited

Keyworth Barn At the time of preparing this Report the decision of the Secretary of State on the future of Keyworth Barn is still awaited, but it is appropriate to record that the Trust commissioned Mr. F. W. B. Charles, a noted authority on timber-framed buildings, to conduct a thorough technical survey of the Barn. Copies of Mr. Charles' report have been considered by the Trust and by the Rushcliffe Borough Council, and we are hopeful that it will be possible to find a practical use for the Barn and thus preserve the visual character of the Keyworth village scene. Keyworth Barn: the Trust has been actively and closely concerned with the future of this building . 6 7 EUROPEAN ARCIllTECTURAL HERITAGE YEAR AWARDS Throughout the past year the Trust has operated within a difli cult The following is a full list of projects in Nottinghamshire to which climate of inflation and a continual decline in the value of money.

E. Lester. In his remarks the Chairman paid tribute to all those who had been involved in this most worthwhile venture including, in particu­ lar, the Teaching Office of the University of Nottingham Department of Architecture and the Building Contractor, Mr. C. G. Rhodes.

CONCLUSION The Trust could not function effectively without substantial grant aid from Local Authorities and we wish to place on record our appreciation to the Nottinghamshire County Council and to the District Councils for their continued support for our work. We also wish to record our thanks to the officers of those Authorities, in particular to Mr. A. Sandford, LL.B., Director of Administration of the Nottinghamshire County Council, for kindly acting as the Trust's Honorary Legal Adviser, and to Mr. J. Farrer, I.P .F.A., F.R.V.A., Treasurer of the Rushcliffe Borough Council, for kindly acting as our Honorary Treasurer. The Trust is greatly indebted to its Technical Panel, who have again undertaken a very wide range of visits and reports on our behalf, and have held regular meetings during the year. The Trust hopes to have an oppor­ tunity, at a later date, of expressing thanks to those Technical Advisers who have felt unable to continue, but in this Report we wish them to be left in no doubt how much we have appreciated their service and how indebted the Trust is to them for their unstinting support and encouragement. Finally, we wish to place on record our thanks to all those officers, Committee Members and interested individuals who have helped to further our work. It would be invidious to mention any particular individual by name, but the Trust has earned · the goodwill and support of Local Authorities, architects and individuals throughout the County and our impact has been greatly enhanced by this support.
