This application is for the necessary repair works to introduce a connection between the front facade and the party wall of No.34 and No.35 Canobury Square. In outline the proposed works involve repairing this by introducing concrete elbows to the internal face of both properties at staggered centers. These will be installed to the internal faces of both properties to minimise disruption to front facade brickwork. They will be installed to the full height of the first floor and to the top half of the ground floor.
