A historic barn at Grade II Listed Farnley Hall estate is set to receive a new door, after planners granted planning permission.
The proposal involves altering the main aluminium entrance from a full height tall door to a standard height door with glazed panel or fanlight above.
The door will go onto a barn which is currently used as offices.
Farnley Hall is series of grade II listed buildings which are owned and occupied by Leeds City Council as office accommodation by Parks and Countryside.
The site lies well within the park which surrounds Farnley Hall, in a relatively isolated position.
The barn was originally constructed in the 17th century and was restored in 1806.Â
A council planning officer’s report approving the plan concludes: “The proposed alterations will have no impact on the heritage significance The proposed alterations will preserve the historic building and approval of listed building consent is recommended.”
