Planning application
Chandler House 12 - 14 High Street Cowden Kent TN8 7JG
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
Listed building consent for works to an external beam at the rear of a Grade II listed property, involving removal of the rotten surface and associated previous cement mortar repairs while retaining the remainder of the original beam on the inside of the house. Resurface the beam with reclaimed heritage oak, with the connection timber-locked using 20mm oak dowels and re-establish the connection to the rafter. Remove cement render to 60mm above the beam and down the side of the jamb using a two-coat system lime mortar product, and paint the new oak work with linseed oil paint
