APPENDICES MEOLS DRIVE CONSERVATION AREA APPRAISAL

APPENDIX A - Historic Plans and Building Age Survey

Plan 01: Area Location Plan 02: Conservation Area Boundary and Character Zones Plan 03 Building Age Survey: Plan showing the period of construction of existing buildings.

Historic Plans:- 1871 1899 1927 1935

APPENDIX B- Building Evaluation Survey

This survey has been undertaken to provide the basis for the Conservation Appraisal. It should provide a valuable tool for future decision making, guidance to building owners and form a ‘base line’ description of the area as at 2003. It is structured as follows:

• Plan B1 attributing a ‘significance category’ to each existing building (as related to the contribution it makes to the character of the conservation area.) • Plans B2 a, b, c providing reference numbers for each property. • Outline Gazetteer ‘in table form’ listing each property by plan reference number.

The Table lists for each property entry:

a) Plan Ref No. (as indicated on plans B2 a – c) b) Photograph No. c) Outline description d) Significance Category e) Features of particular interest f) Alterations / additions detrimental to building significance

• Photographs of individual building.
