Turned Down

Hatchet Wood Farm, Skirmett, Bucks, Garnett, Cloughley, Blakemore and Associates 1967-8

Turned down as it failed to meet the tough criteria for post-war listing. It was cited as a simple house in terms of finishes and fixtures and as some interiors had been altered it was deemed unlistable. Unfortunately the bulldozers will move in once planning permission for a new development is granted.

Cole Bros Department Store, Sheffield, South Yorks., Rosenberg and Mardall, 1964

Put in for listing in October but the building had been granted a Certificate of Immunity in September. Not considered to be of a high enough standard to list. The building will be demolished to make way for Sheffield’s new retail quarter.

Borthwick Wharf, Deptford, London, Sir Edwin Cooper, 1934

A rare example of an industrial building by the architect, it was not considered to possess enough finesse to be listed.
