I think you will need plans drawn up, as this is a major structure, once
this is done you will need to pass then through the Heritage committee,
if they pass them and agree it is in keeping with the do's and dont's of
this group, then the final stage through the city council.

Subject: [obsnw] security versus heritage



Hi there,
We live in a heritage house and we have a heritage wall which in the
past we were told we couldn't modify.  Our wall is short and easy to
jump over and does not have any deterrents on it (i.e. metal spikes
etc).  We have recently experienced multiple attempts to gain access to
our house and we would like to modify the wall/build a new one that will
make it higher and less easy to jump over and also incorporate
deterrents (thinking combining brick and iron with metal spikes).
We are wanting to maintain the image and respect the heritage of the
area we live in but also increase our safety and security without
irritating the council.
Can we go ahead with making changes to the wall or do we need to apply
for permission to the council?

Thank you,
