Comments for Planning Application 2020/0207/LBC
Application Summary Application Number: 2020/0207/LBC Address: Ballater Old School Abergeldie Road Ballater Aberdeenshire AB35 5RR Proposal: Repair and removal to walls, chimney stacks, pavilion façade and slates Case Officer: Stephanie Wade
Customer Details Name: Mr Richard Frimston Address: Ardenlea 44 Golf Road Ballater
Comment Details Commenter Type: Community Council Stance: Customer objects to the Planning Application Comment Reasons: Comment:BCCC at its meeting on 14 September 2020 decided to object to this application. The removal of chimneys from this listed building in a conservation area, is not appropriate. All of the chimneys and their pots are visible and contribute to the traditional skyline and history of the building. We would also hope that the west gable of the old school house now exposed could be rebuilt in traditional granite and the listed building appearance maintained as it was originally constructed.
