Listed Building
26th April
I've noticed that the Grade 2 listed building at address 50 Haughton Green, Darlington as installed new UPV downstairs windows. My understand is that planning permission needs to be obtained before this type of work can be carried out on a listed building. Being a local resident I have checked the local planning register and can not see any application for this work.

This was reported in late 2023 but sadly no progress and over the months of more vehicles not keeping on the road but driving over and onto the path ( This is one example of local rubbish collection vehicle last week and but other vehicles too).Such that now the manhole is broken and tarmac has gone around edged and is sinking into pavement and next will fail and cause a hazard to Pedestrians .
