Dear Mr Barton

Arrangements for Handling Heritage Applications Direction 2015 & T&CP (Development Management Procedure) () Order 2015 BALLIDON QUARRY, BALLIDON, DERBYSHIRE, DE6 1JU Application No NP/DDD/0715/0618 and NP/DDD0715/0619

Thank you for your letter of 20 August 2015 notifying us of the application for planning permissions relating to the above site.

Historic England Advice With regard to any archaeological remains which may have survived below the old tip at the south western side of the main quarry we refer you to the advice of Ken Smith Cultural Heritage Manager PDNPA. As to the grade II Listed Buildings on site (the Offices, Laboratories, the Cottage), all we believe in the ownership of the applicant, we refer you to the advice of your Conservation Officer. In particular their advice should be sought as to what additional details and commitments would be appropriate from the applicant setting out how the Listed Buildings will be delivered to market in good and economically viable order at the end of the restoration scheme with their significance sustained. Any integration with the on-going sustainable future and use of Ballidon Chapel which might be achieved alongside a scheme for the buildings discussed above would be of additional public benefit. Recommendation We would urge you to address the above issues, and recommend that the application should be determined in accordance with national and local policy guidance, and on the basis of your specialist conservation advice. It is not necessary for us to be consulted again. However, if you would like further advice, please contact us to explain your request.
