AW Architectural Design Ltd Registered office: Willows 1, Mill Farm Courtyard, Beachampton, MK19 6DS. Registered in England and Wales No. 10749119 3/13 AW Architectural Design Ltd Heritage and Planning The AVDC Local Plan contains the following heritage-related clauses: 4.143 There are over 2,800 buildings, bridges, statues and other structures in the District contained in Lists of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest. Of these listed buildings over 200 are recorded as Grades I or II* and the remainder as Grade II. Buildings in Aylesbury were last surveyed in 1973. Those in Buckingham were surveyed in 1994 and lists for the remaining parishes were revised between 1981 and 1985. 4.144 The objective of listing buildings is to ensure their protection. The Council has a statutory duty to have a special regard to the desirability of preserving any listed building or its setting, or any features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses. Listed building consent is required for all works that would affect a building’s special interest including internal work. 4.146 Many listed buildings can sustain some degree of sensitive alteration or extension without loss of their special interest. Cumulative changes reflecting the history of use and ownership are themselves an aspect of the character of some buildings, but in some cases successive works of indifferent quality can cumulatively be very destructive of a building’s special interest. Alterations, even of a minor nature must respect the individual characteristics of the building and ensure the survival of as much historic fabric as is practical. 4.147 The objective of listing buildings is to ensure their protection and this is best achieved by retaining them in their original form. However the demolition of inappropriate extensions to a listed building may be permitted, provided the retained section of the building is made good. Exterior The original C17 building is of timber-framed construction recased in facing brick and has a thatch roof finish. There is a 2-storey facing brickwork C19 extension with a clay tile roof and a single storey rear extension (circa 1970) with facing brickwork and felt flat roof. Landscape This application does not have an impact on the landscape setting of the property. Layout On the ground floor, in the original C17 building is the living room and lounge. In the C19 extension is the kitchen. The C17 & C19 buildings are linked via a doorway between the Living Room and Kitchen. The single storey rear extension accommodates a WC/utility. There are 4 bedrooms and a bathroom located on the first floor. There are two sets of stairs. One accesses two of the bedrooms in the C17 building and the other accesses the other 2 bedrooms and bathroom in the C19 building. PROPOSAL This application seeks permission for the renovation of an inglenook fireplace, restoration of wall finishes, new floor structure and a new opening.

Registered in England and Wales No. 10749119 5/13 AW Architectural Design Ltd INGLENOOK FIRE PLACE: An inglenook fireplace has been exposed after removing a poorly built infill. It is believed the inglenook was in- filled circa 1980. The infill was delicately removed with hand tools only. The infill was not tied into the original structure, and therefore no damage was caused to the original asset by its removal. The void had been filled with rubble and shingle. As the infill had not been ventilated and the chimney had not been capped off, the walls have suffered from damp. This application seeks permission to renovate the fireplace and surrounding walls as detail below: 1 2 3 4 1. The lime plaster to the stonework over the beam has become loose or blown in areas. There are some areas that have been patch filled with either concrete of gypsum plaster in the past. It is proposed to carefully remove the loose plaster and modern filling by hand; ensuring the original lime plaster that is sound is retained intact. The areas to be repaired will be done so using lime to match the original finish. The areas that are of a depth greater than 15mm will be two part filled. The initial filling being haired coarse lime mortar (ratio 3:1 (sand:lime) with 2kg of natural animal hair per m³ of mortar). The second part being unhaired lime mortar (ratio 3:1 (sand:lime)) that is sponge float finished into the original lime plaster. 2. The internal walls of the fireplace are brick & stone that have many layers of paint over. The top coat is a gloss paint finish, which has caused damage to areas of the plaster. It is proposed to carefully brush off the paint back to the base finish. Areas to be filled will be done so using lime mortar (ratio 3:1 (sand:lime)). A top skim coat of fine lime plaster will be applied over. 3. It is proposed to deep clean the facing brick detail. The loose mortar will be raked out by hand and will be re-pointed using lime mortar (ratio 3:1 (sand:lime)) with a brushed finish. 4. The walls throughout the room have many layers of wallpaper that have prevented the walls from breathing resulting in the plaster falling away from the wall in many places, particularly on the stonework. It is proposed to bush back any loose lime, and re-point as required with a lime mortar. A scratch coat of haired course lime mortar will then be applied (ratio 3:1 (sand:lime) with 2kg of natural animal hair per m³ of mortar) with a top coat of unhaired lime mortar (ratio 3:1 (sand:lime)) that is sponged float finished. AW Architectural Design Ltd Registered office: Willows 1, Mill Farm Courtyard, Beachampton, MK19 6DS. Registered in England and Wales No. 10749119 6/13 AW Architectural Design Ltd AW Architectural Design Ltd Registered office: Willows 1, Mill Farm Courtyard, Beachampton, MK19 6DS. Registered in England and Wales No. 10749119 7/13 AW Architectural Design Ltd BEDROOMS 2 FLOOR CONSTRUCTION: The floor structure of Bedroom 2 has failed, making the room inaccessible. The original joists are approximately 80x100mm timbers. As the joists are undersized for the span and loads imposed, they have failed with several deflecting to the point they have slipped off the wall plate. Due to this deflection, the vast majority of the lath ceiling has failed and the main thing preventing the plaster from falling are the several layers of lining paper that have been applied in the past. There is also evidence where areas of the ceiling have been patch repaired with plasterboard and Gypsum plaster. It is not proposed to remove the joists, but instead remove the failed lathe and plaster ceiling to expose the original timbers. As the joists are not fit to remain structural, it is proposed to construct a new floor structure over.

  • Historic Fireplaces & Their Evolution
    Historic Fireplaces & their evolution Heritage Directory Note www.theheritagedirectory.co.uk Copyright The Heritage Directory 2010 v2 An overview of changes in fireplace design over time. Historic Fireplaces before 1680 The inglenook is one of the oldest forms of fireplaces, evolved from the smoke bay and the transition from open fires. Copyright The Heritage Directory www.theheritagedirectory.co.uk 2009 This example has the surviving pot cradle and built in side seat and salt store, with later added cornice mantel. They are often associated with later inserted bread ovens. Copyright The Heritage Directory www.theheritagedirectory.co.uk 2009 The dome of the bread oven interior is often delicately shaped. Higher status rooms have stone fireplaces, usually with a Tudor arch. These fireplaces are often marked with apotropaic witches marks to ward off evil spirits which might come down the chimney. Copyright The Heritage Directory www.theheritagedirectory.co.uk 2009 Higher status fireplaces might be enhanced with a carved mantelpiece. Historic Fireplaces 1680 to 1700 In the late 17th century the traditional stone fireplace started to evolve into a more classical form. Copyright The Heritage Directory www.theheritagedirectory.co.uk 2009 Bolection mouldings and cornice mantelpiece are a feature of the late 17th century. Note the cast iron fireback, a feature of open fireplaces of the 16th and 17th century, though often now reproduction. Bolection fireplaces were simplified to just stone surrounds, even in high status buildings. Copyright The Heritage Directory www.theheritagedirectory.co.uk 2009 Around 1700 a brief fashion for corner fireplaces occurred . Historic Fireplaces before 1700 to 1750 In the early 18th century, eared fireplaces become fashionable and marble replaced stone.

This Development Plan, the most important yet produced for our District, reflects - even anticipates - change in a way that earlier plans did not come close to doing. Yet the Council's corporate mission - to make Aylesbury Vale the best possible place for people to live and work - remains a timeless guiding principle. So comprehensive is this District Local Plan for Aylesbury Vale that it will affect the lives of people over the next seven years to 2011. There are two main themes: sustainability and accessibility. Sustainability, in its purest sense, requires us to take no more from the environment than we put back. The Council has striven to minimise consumption of natural resources by looking carefully at the demands development makes on land, air and water, and its impact on the natural and historical environment.

  • The Ten Commandments of Model Railroad Yard Design
    The Ten Commandments of Model Railroad Yard Design By Craig Bisgeier Sample Yard Layout You may find it helpful to print out this diagram before reading the article. Having a hard copy of the diagram to refer to as you are reading will probably be a big help for some of the more difficult concepts. This is definitely a case of a picture being worth a thousand words... One of the most often modeled -- and misunderstood -- layout design elements is the yard. Nearly everyone has one on their layout, whether it's used simply for car storage or as an actual operating tool. Unfortunately, many of them don't work very well. Common design mistakes are made over and over again by beginner and intermediate modelers. They can't be faulted, though, because the info on how to design a good yard is very hard to find. Even when the hobby press gets it right, it's short-lived, because if you missed the issue you didn't see it. Most of the time you see poor examples (like the hated Timesaver) which are often published by the hobby press without comment, and therefore accepted by those who do not know better as good design. So the "secrets" of good yard design are difficult to for most to uncover, because the good nuggets of information appear in wildly different places like out of print magazines or books, special interest publications, or even word of mouth among advanced modelers. not many modelers have that kind of library or access. What is needed is a repository where all the good ideas can be collected, stored, edited and presented as one all-encompassing primer on the subject.

  • TMS-Greathorse-Dining
    GREATHORSE Dining After entering GREATHORSE through the east porte cochere on the upper level, you move past a stone fireplace, glimpse the Chihuly sculpture in the rotunda, and find a stairway with an iron railing forged to replicate the look of rope that will lead you down to the lower level. At the base of the stairs, you are welcomed by a stone water feature. Your choices at this point are to go left to enter the main dining room, veer right into the bar or continue down a corridor lined with a curated art gallery to the pro shop. The main dining room was designed to create a private dining experience in a large open room. This has been achieved by dividing the room into smaller dining spaces with low height walls and hideaway niches, such as the inglenook with its two rounded booths near the fireplace to create a perfect space for an intimate meal. The bar and dining room both lead out to the west terrace with its magnificent views of the golf course and the Berkshires in the distance. Dining service is available on the terrace for three seasons. When the weather becomes cooler, the 6 foot diameter fire pit keeps diners warm and five large flat screen TVs installed on the exterior of the building display sporting events throughout the day. Building Information: - Materials used in on the dining level are more rustic with the concept that these spaces would feel like a comfortable worn leather boot - The art gallery in the lower hallway is a portion of the owners’ collection with photos of horses and family members celebrating at races - There are private wine lockers on each side of the inglenook and in the hostess area NEW ENGLAND DESIGN .
