Officers Report Committee Date: 18/12/2014 Application Number: 2014/07766/PA Accepted: 27/10/2014 Application Type: Listed Building Target Date: 22/12/2014 Ward: Tyburn Former Department of Social Services, Pype Hayes Hall, 997 Chester Road, Erdington, Birmingham, B24 0HG Listed Building Consent for the demolition of two outbuildings and confirmation of the demolition of a further structure associated with Pype Hayes Hall Applicant: Mr Gerald Manton 382 Aston Lane, Witton, Birmingham, B6 6QN Agent: PCPT Architects Limited 84 Spencer Street, Jewellery Quarter, Birmingham, B18 6DS Recommendation Approve Subject To Conditions 1. Proposal 1.1. Listed Building Consent is sought for the demolition of two outbuildings and confirmation of the demolition of a further structure. 1.2. This submission proposes the demolition of a single storey detached building within the centre of a complex of stables/outbuildings to the side of Pype Hayes Hall, the principal listed building, together with a single storey air raid shelter directly in front of the Hall. A further building to the rear of the stables has previously been demolished and this application seeks to regularise this change. 1.3. Since the application’s submission the plans have been amended to remove two further structures from the proposed demolition proposals as consideration of their demolition would be premature at this time. 1.4. A Heritage, Design and Access Statement together with a Demolition Site Plan have been submitted in support of this application. Demolition Site Plan 2. Site & Surroundings 2.1. The application buildings comprise of an air raid shelter to the front of the main hall and a single storey building within the courtyard of the outbuildings. The buildings are flat roofed and of red brick construction. 2.2. The wider application site comprises of Pype Hayes Hall, a Grade II listed building, with a collection of associated outbuildings within its curtilage. The hall sits within Pype Hayes Park and as such is surrounded by open space. This is provides a mix Page 1 of 5 of treed and open areas together with a more formal sensory garden and sports facilities such as tennis courts. Levels generally fall towards Plants Brook to the north. The principal elevation of the hall faces towards the south and due to the openness of its surroundings there are distant views of this prominent building. The application site and surrounding open space are designated Green Belt. 2.3. Pype Hayes Park is accessed off Chester Road, a dual carriageway. This part of Chester Road is largely fronted by residential properties. Location Streetview 3. Planning History 3.1. Current application elsewhere on your Committee’s agenda – 2014/08512/PA – Application for prior notification of proposed demolition of two outbuildings. 4. Consultation/PP Responses 4.1. English Heritage – No comments to make on the application. 4.2. Site and Press Notices posted. Amenity Societies and Ward Members consulted without response. 5. Policy Context 5.1. Birmingham Unitary Development Plan 2005; the draft Birmingham Development Plan; Regeneration through Conservation SPG; and the National Planning Policy Framework 2012. 6. Planning Considerations BACKGROUND 6.1. Pype Hayes Hall and the surrounding outbuildings were recently sold on a leasehold basis by the City Council to a private developer subject to clauses requiring the refurbishment of the building. The new owner has re-roofed the majority of the outbuildings to ensure their short term survival and is currently working towards developing a long term redevelopment proposal for the site, potentially as a hotel / spa resort. HERITAGE IMPLICATIONS 6.2. In considering this application special regard should be had for the desirability of preserving the building or its setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest. Whilst the hall is the primary building on this site, the outbuildings are listed and therefore designated heritage assets. 6.3. My Conservation Officer raises no objection to the proposed demolition of these two structures following the receipt of amended plans. She considers that in both instances they obscure views of the principal heritage assets and have a negative impact on their setting. Page 2 of 5 6.4. I concur with this conclusion and consider that the proposed demolition would, in combination, improve the setting of the principal hall building and assist in the future redevelopment of this wider site with a view to ultimately securing its long term use. I therefore raise no objection to the demolition of these buildings and consider that these works would enhance the character and appearance of the principal designated heritage asset. 7. Conclusion 7.1. The proposed buildings to be demolished have little historic merit and largely benefit from listing due to their siting within the curtilage of the principal listed building, Pype Hayes Hall. The removal of the air raid shelter would greatly improve the setting of the main listed building. The other outbuilding to be demolished within the courtyard has no architectural or historic merit and its loss is likely to facilitate the future reuse of the Hall in the long term. Finally, the building already demolished to the rear of the stable block had previously been identified as having little historic, communal and/or aesthetic value and therefore I raise no objection to its loss. 7.2. I therefore recommend that this application for listed building consent is approved. 8. Recommendation 8.1. That Listed Building Consent be granted subject to the following conditions: 1 Requires the scheme to be in accordance with the listed approved plans 2 Limits the approval to 3 years (conservation/listed buildings consent) Case Officer: Nicholas Jackson Page 3 of 5 Photo(s) Figure 1 – Structure to be demolished Page 4 of 5 Location Plan This map is reproduced from the Ordnance Survey Material with the permission of Ordnance Survey on behalf of the Controller of Her Majesty's Stationery Office © Crown Copyright.

  • A History of Castle Vale
    A HISTORY OF CASTLE VALE By Geoff Bateson INTRODUCTION Castle Vale is a modern housing area on the north-eastern edge of Birmingham. It is unique in many ways and has gone through distinct sets of changes. The things that most people noticed on their first visit to the area, when it was first built as a housing estate, was the flat and open landscape and the very distinct boundaries which seemed to almost cut Castle Vale off from the rest of the city to make a little island of people. These features have recently been changed, and will continue to change into the future, but each change is dictated by past developments. To understand what an area is like now, it is important to understand its history. The history of the Castle Vale area can be traced backwards, layer by layer and then built up again as a sequential record of those things that made the area what it was at each stage of its development. This booklet follows the changing fortunes of the small area of land known as Castle Vale from its beginnings as a swampy forest, through the feudal times of battling barons, through the growing industrialisation of Birmingham to the First World War, on through its life as an airfield, finally to the construction of the modern housing estate and the very recent improvements to that area. From time to time little excursions will be taken into the wider history of the region but only in order to set the very local events within their wider setting and make them even more interesting than they already are.

  • Birmingham Electoral Ward Boundaries Submission January 2016
    BIRMINGHAM ELECTORAL WARD BOUNDARIES SUBMISSION JANUARY 2016 On behalf of: Keith Hanson, Secretary, Birmingham Labour Party Josh Jones, City Council Labour Group Page 1 of 21 Introduction Response to the Draft Recommendations of the Local Government Boundary Commission for England The draft recommendations of the Local Government Boundary Commission for England for the north and west of the City reflected many of the proposals put forward by the Labour Group, Birmingham City Council in September 2015. The physical and community geography of the area is shaped by the historical boundary between Sutton Coldfield and the remainder of Birmingham and by the M6 motorway, railways and River Cole. These features constrain options on boundaries that meet the statutory criteria. Such features are less dominant in the south of the City. This may explain why the Boundary Commission’s draft recommendations across parts of South Birmingham do not have the same level of support from residents as they have in the north of the City, as community views are not as constrained by physical geographical features. Even so, generally, the proposals by the Boundary Commission for the south of the City can be supported by the Labour Party once the conflict over specific community concerns is resolved. Hence, this response by the Labour Party in Birmingham seeks to retain the Boundary Commission’s proposals for much of the city but with alternative ward arrangements in Balsall Heath, Moseley, Hall Green and Acocks Green – areas where local communities have expressed the greatest concerns about the draft recommendations from the Boundary Commission. A few, minor adjustments are suggested beyond these areas, together with a number of ward name changes that better reflect the local identities of the proposed wards.

  • The Assessment Concludes That Multi-Typology Open Spaces Should Be Encouraged So Biodiversity Is an Integral Part of Recreational Open Space
    The assessment concludes that multi-typology open spaces should be encouraged so biodiversity is an integral part of recreational open space. Description of provision in Walsall Metropolitan Borough 7.40. Walsall Metropolitan Borough falls in the southeast of the study area. The less densely urban eastern half of the borough is included within the study boundary. Figure 7.1e shows distribution of current open space provision by typology as assessed in the Walsall Green Space Strategy 2006-2011 (Draft for consultation July 06). The strategy did not set out any standards for analysis or for future provision, however the Urban Open Space SPD, April 2006 provides further summary of the current quantity of provision and targets for future provision. This information is summarised in Table 7.5 below.
