Abstract:		 This Heritage Statement has been prepared to accompany the application for Listed Building Consent associated with changes to Building 55 at Leuchars Station. Building 55 is a rare surviving example of a General Service shed, a World War One era structure, built c.1917. It was constructed at a time when the design was continually evolving in response to new technological advances in air travel. The design of Building 55 was short-lived and the fact it retains working sliding doors enhances the rarity of the building. Along with neighbouring Building 57, the two are unique in Scotland. Proposed changes involve the removal of modern internal structures within the north hangar and internal refurbishment of the annexes, including removal and installation of partitions to create offices and an ablutions block. A series of destratification fans will be suspended from the roof trusses. An existing external entrance in the east elevation of the north hangar will be replaced, and a number of louvres placed through the fabric of the gables. The proposals will mostly have a negligible effect on the significance of Building 55. The insertion of Louvres into the corrugated iron cladding represents a physical impact to the listed fabric and, although limited in its extent and mitigated through design, harm to the significance of the building. Potential heritage benefits have been identified by keeping the building in use through sensitive change and adaptation, ensuring its future conservation. This is considered to outweigh the potential harm resulting from the insertion of Louvres.
