®Planning appeal decision
24 Bata Avenue, East Tilbury, Tilbury, RM18 8SD
Planning appeal 3263142 at 24 Bata Avenue, East Tilbury, Tilbury, RM18 8SD (Thurrock Borough Council) was dismissed on 23 February 2022 by Inspector Parker C, by written representations. The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: Whether the works would preserve features of special architectural or historic interest of the listed building.
Replacement of Windows and Doors; Outside rendering to property. The windows of the property have been rotten as the property was unoccupied for some time. We had a survey done and we were informed that the windows will need to be replaced because of rot and termites eating into the wood and also the glass cracked and single glazed. There was a lot of more complicated issues than this but we didn't know this before the property was bought. The company who took over the property gave no information regarding the property and we didn't know it was listed until we were nearly about to exchange. The house also needed rendering according to the survey and we also go the rendering sorted.’ (sic)

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the works would preserve features of special architectural or historic interest of the listed building
- Whether the works preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the conservation area
What decided it
The introduction of black UPVC frames and smooth render finish, which are ahistorical and discordant with the established character of Bata Avenue, causes less than substantial harm to the listed building and conservation area that is not outweighed by the modest public benefit of improved energy efficiency.
