the demolition of the corrugated iron covered barrel roofed auditorium that has fallen into disrepair and the retention of part of the protected structure including the Art Deco front façade along with the ground floor lobby and first floor projection room and ancillary spaces. It is proposed to extend the partly retained 2 storey structure to form a new 2 storey, 4 bedroom dwelling with rear private garden and erect an additional 2 storey, 4 bedroom detached dwelling located to the rear of the existing cinema, also designed in the Art Deco style. The layout has been sympathetically designed to incorporate the existing features into the front elevation, retaining the essential character of the protected structure with the new rear and side elevations designed in the Art Deco style with curved corner widows, recessed and projecting plastered bands and horizontal fenestration. The front façade shall be repaired where necessary and repainted. The retained front elevation shall be amended to allow a new front door access to House 1, to the left of the facade. Windows shall be replaced with opening dark grey aluminium double glazed windows. The existing entrance doors shall be replaced with a dark grey aluminium glazed screen to replicate the existing Art Deco design. The canopy will be covered with a lead flat roof. A painted timber eaves and soffit will be fitted to replicate the existing materials. The proposed pitched roof to the house is finished in blue/black flat tiles and is hidden behind the listed front elevation. Both dwellings have been designed to ensure there is no overlooking of any neighbouring properties. The detached house is 22m from the rear facade of the house in the original cinema. This is a protected structure
