Abstract: |
This report examines the impact of a proposal to develop an agricultural building on the footprint of an earlier such building at School Lane in Marazion, Cornwall. The proposal site is acknowledged to lie within the setting of the Marazion, and potentially the St Michael's Mount Conservation Areas. The assessment identifies that the significance of the Conservation Area lies in the survival of its medieval plan form, in an appreciation of its historic relationship to St Michael's Mount, and in the quality of its many historic buildings. The rural setting to its north and maritime setting to its south are acknowledged to contribute strongly to an appreciation of these historic and architectural values. The proposal affects an area which until the later 20th century lay within enclosed fields to the immediate north of the medieval town adjacent to a 'back lane' originally servicing plots facing the main arterial 'Upper Fore St'. The site lies opposite three unlisted early-mid19th century cottages built as back land development on the tail of two of these plots. These building have been subject to damaging alterations during the 20th century and are now principally of limited architectural value. During the later 20th century the area, lying between the town and the crest of the hills behind, was developed piecemeal for mostly residential purposes and its 'historic character' is now of the late 20th century. |
