listed building is not being properly preserved they may serve on the owner a
'repairs notice' under Section 115 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1971.
This notice must specify the works which the authority consider reasonably
necessary for the proper preservation of the building and explain that if it is
not complied with within 2 months the authority may make a compulsory purchase
order and submit it to the Secretary of State for confirmation. If the owner
deliberately neglects the building in order to redevelop the site, the local
authority may not only acquire the building, but may do so at a price which
excludes the value of the site for redevelopment. If the building is
unoccupied, the authority can serve a notice on the owner giving him 7 days'
notice of their intention to carry out repairs which are urgently necessary to
secure its preservation and recover the cost from the owner. These powers may
also be exercised by the Secretary of State. Owners of listed buildings can, in
some cases, get grants or loans to help them with repairs and maintenance.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

I wouldn't have thought that "Starter homes" would have made much
profit on the site, considering how much work WAS required before the death of
the surveyor in 06/07. I remember a comment from the HSE that it was thought
that a trap was open, but covered with ply wood and the surveyor fell through.<br>
<br>
I wonder what will happen to the place now? I think its a grade 2 listed
building.<br>
