2020 risk level: C (Slow decay, no solution agreed)
2022 risk level: C (Slow decay, no solution agreed)
Ownership: Private
Occupancy: Not applicable

Description: Lady’s Bridge serves the canal. Late-18th and 19th century in date. Architectural detailing includes rendered brick with ashlar dressings, single stilted segmented arch with ashlar soffits with centre keystones, ashlar coping with ornamental 19th century cast iron railings, and octagonal abutments and railing piers with ashlar caps.

Reason(s) for 'at risk' status: No noticeable change from 2012 survey. Corroding to railings, excessive ivy growth, delamination of render, and collapsed pier to the west elevation.

Notes: Some vegetation has been cleared since previous inspection in June 2021.

Last surveyed: 20th October 2022
HE Reference: 1156225

2012 risk level: 3 (At Risk) 2020 risk level: D (Slow decay, solution agreed)
2022 risk level: D (Slow decay, solution agreed)

Ownership: Private
Occupancy: Partially occupied

Description: 108 & 110 Bridge Street is a rare survivor from the 17th century. Known as the ‘Eclipse Building’, it has an early oak staircase and a cruck trussed roof structure under a steeply pitched slate roof of coped gables with kneelers. Rendered frontage was rebuilt in the 19th century, featuring rusticated quoins, moulded architraves, wall banding, and coped parapet with modillioned eaves to the left three bays. Adjacent to the ‘Eclipse Building’ is the third bay, ‘Dukeries Café’, 106 Bridge Street.

Reason(s) for 'at risk' status: Much of exterior to 108-110 repaired and repainted in 2018. However, majority still remains empty and interior and parts of side/rear in deteriorating condition. 106 is in poor condition due to extensive water damage, vegetation growth at parapet level, failing cement render and windows requiring repairs/replacement. Architectural features missing, including stone balustrade at roof level and large section of modillioned eaves. A high priority recognised by Townscape Heritage scheme; funding is available until 2022. Planning Permission and Listed Building Consent granted in 2019/20 (ref: 19/00501/FUL & 19/00502/LBA) for replacement of shopfront and conversion of upper floors into 9 residential flats, at 108-110, although not yet implemented.

Notes: 108-110 has PP/LBC for conversion of upper floors to apartments, replacement of shopfront and various other repairs, from 2019 (refs 19/00501/FUL & 19/00502/LBA) and varied 2020 (refs 20/00965/VOC & 20/00978/VOC). Some minor repairs carried out to facade, roof and rear, but most of the scheme has yet to be implemented. Owners moved onto site September 2022 and conversion works have begun.

106 has PP/LBC for new shopfront, restoration of frontage and conversion of upper floors to flats, approved December 2019 (19/01185/FUL & 19/01186/LBA) - not implemented. Discussions have been ongoing with the owner, Conservation and Townscape Heritage Officer throughout 2021 and 2022. Met with owner September 2022 and discussed roof repairs and restoration of facade. Scaffolding has been erected and DOFF masonry cleaning system was used in test areas for removal of masonry paint – this was successful and therefore full facade restoration will be carried out by Bonsers in the new year, part funded by Townscape Heritage Lottery Fund.

2022 risk level: C (Slow decay, no solution agreed)

Ownership: Private
Occupancy: Partially occupied

Description: Built in 1760 (illustrated on a decorative downpipe hopper head). Constructed from brick with ashlar details, decorative banding, and parapet with iron balustrade. Sliding sash windows with rubbed brick arches and keystone, and a gabled dormer to the roof. A carriage entrance to set-back bay to the left; shopfront is flanked by Doric columns.

Reason(s) for 'at risk' status: Poor brickwork to facade, window surrounds and rainwater goods. Overall, poor condition, in need of basic maintenance and repairs. Vegetation growing from gutter outlet. A high priority building recognised by Townscape Heritage Initiative; funding is available until 2022.

Notes: Contacted owner in November 2020 and repairs were agreed – sadly these were not implemented. Contacted owner again in April 2022 but no response.

Occupancy: Vacant

Description: Toll house, early 19th century. Architectural detailing includes coursed squared stone, ashlar stone surrounds to openings, central ornate chimney stack, deep eaves, decorative rise and fall brackets. The building is single storey and has a cross plan form.

Reason(s) for 'at risk' status: Since 2012 survey, masonry repairs have been carried out with some repointing. However, the slate roof has not been reinstated and the temporary metal roof covering is in situ. Rainwater goods have not been reinstated. Openings are boarded up. Chimney pots removed. Vegetation increased. Building remains vacant.

2012 risk level: 4 (Vulnerable)
2020 risk level: C (Slow decay, no solution agreed)
2022 risk level: C (Slow decay, no solution agreed)

Ownership: Private
Occupancy: Vacant

Description: Bracebridge Pumping Station built in 1881 as a sewage pumping station. Designed in the Romanesque style, typical of Victorian industrial buildings. The engine house and chimney survive, although the boiler house has been demolished. Brick built with a hipped slate roof and decorative tall brick chimney stack with square plan ashlar base.

Reason(s) for 'at risk' status: Building is vacant, but in a stable condition. Susceptible to deterioration through lack of glazing to windows. Vegetation requires removal in several locations. Isolated areas of brickwork damage, including on chimney. Cracked stonework on plinth of chimney. Various Planning Permissions/Listed Building Consents granted for conversion and extension, although not implemented. New owner 2020, site security improved with fencing, gates and CCTV.

Notes: Had various discussions with new owners since January 2020 relating to possible conversion of building to a dwelling, including an extension. However, Covid-19 pandemic stopped much of their family business so this project stalled. New security fencing and gates erected mid-2020 and CCTV also installed so site no longer easily accessible to trespassers. Last contact with owners was June 2021.

2012 risk level: 3 (At Risk)
2020 risk level: C (Slow decay, no solution agreed)
2022 risk level: C (Slow decay, no solution agreed)

Ownership: Private
Occupancy: Vacant

Description: Early-19th century barn and stables. Constructed from coursed rubble with hipped pantile roofs. Architectural detailing includes ashlar dressings, quoins and eaves banding. The barn range includes a 2-storey, 4 bay barn and lower stable range to the east, which is 2-storeys and 3 bays. To the right of the site is a mounting block.

Reason(s) for 'at risk' status: Buildings require extensive maintenance. Substantial vegetation (mainly ivy) covers much of the walls and roof, hiding window and door openings. Slipped tiles have caused holes in roof. Re-pointing to masonry where required.

Notes: Conservation wrote to owners in October 2021, requesting site meeting and then schedule of repair works. Met with owner soon after, discussed various re-use and repair issues. In January 2022, the owner’s agent submitted draft plans for conversion and redevelopment scheme. Written feedback provided March 2022. No further contact.

Ownership: Private
Occupancy: Vacant

Description: The site once consisted of a pair of cottages dating back to the early 19th century. Constructed from square rubble and brick dressings with a pantile roof. 2-storeys, 2 bays and one gable stack. The rear once had a single storey lean-to extension.

Reason(s) for 'at risk' status: Works carried out in 2015 to take down the roof which had collapsed and to remove surrounding vegetation. However, no long-term solution has been agreed. Vegetation still a serious issue. No doors remain, and windows are unglazed. The site is fenced off.

Ownership: Private
Occupancy: Vacant

Description: Late-18th century ice-house. Constructed from coursed squared rubble and brick with ashlar dressings. West entrance has brick stairs with ashlar lintel and inner doorway and east entrance has rubble ramp and similar lintel. It has a square lined chamber with segmental brick vault, approximately 5 metres each way.

Reason(s) for 'at risk' status: Unused and neglected. Vegetation, litter, and vandalism are causing a problem to the structure. The structure’s isolated location in a woodland/scrub along with its vulnerable condition, i.e. potential fire risk, contributes to its ‘at risk’ status. It is most likely that the inner chamber will need recording and securing in preparation for a manageable decline.
