Our Place support the proposed mixed use allocation of St George's Works in reflection of its sustainable location and the owner’s intentions to deliver the site within the Plan Period to 2038.

However, noting the lack of viability or deliverability information supporting the draft Local Plan, Our Place question whether the specificity of the quantum within the draft allocation is justified and as such, recommend alternative wording to the allocation to allow for greater flexibility on this point.

Please see enclosed representations letter for further information.

Respondent: Historic England

This site lies within the Norwich City Centre Conservation Area and would appear to be immediately adjacent to the grade II listed 47 and 49 Colegate and Woolpack Public House. Any development of this site has the potential to impact upon these designated heritage assets and their settings.
Historic England is broadly supportive of the principle of redevelopment of this site, providing it is of an appropriate scale and massing and conserves and enhances the heritage assets. At street level, it will be important for the new development on the rest of the site to reinforce the scale, form and grain of the historic streets around.
We welcome the reference to the Conservation Area in bullet point 2. We suggest that specific mention is also made of the adjacent listed buildings. The policy should be amended to read that preserves and enhances the significance City Centre Conservation Area and nearby designated heritage assets including 47 and 49 Colegate and the Woolpack Public House, all listed at grade II including any contribution made to that significance by setting.
We welcome the commitment in bullet point 4 to the protection of key views of the tower of St George’s Colegate.

Suggested Change:
Specific mention should be made of the adjacent listed buildings. The policy should be amended to read that preserves and enhances the significance City Centre Conservation Area and nearby designated heritage assets including 47 and 49 Colegate and the Woolpack Public House, all listed at grade II including any contribution made to that significance by setting.
