Summary
The applicant proposes to convert an outbuilding shower room and add a pitched roof. No size or height is given in the proposal. The site is in York's Central Historic Core, a protected historic area. Two protected old university buildings are about a 1-minute walk away. York St John University is directly adjacent, while nearby homes stand as close as a few steps away. The roof could change how the outbuilding looks within this historic area. Most surrounding buildings block views, but 75 property fronts have a direct view towards the site.
What you can do
Comments can be sent to City of York Council under reference 26/01352/FUL. Comments should explain any effect on nearby homes, the protected historic area, or the look of the new roof.
