SHS BURRIDGE ARCHITECTS can have a personal conversation with you and advise if your property is Listed and what this means. It's a criminal offense to demolish, alter materially, or extend a listed building without Listed Building Consent. However, you probably won't need Listed Building Consent if you're replacing old materials for new on a 'like-for-like' basis and the repair work doesn't affect the character of the building.
