Delisting a property

[Flymeaway4]

Has anyone had any success doing this? Specifically a grade 2 listing. If so, how did you go about it and what reasoning did you give for wanting it delisted?

Gosh, if this was a bash the teacher thread, you’d be jumped all over.

Let’s all bad mouth conservation officers because they are all the same, aren’t they. Ridiculous.

@timetochangeyourlife @Smallblanketm we have now employed a local architect who is on good terms with our Officer and he seems to be helping get things moving. Before we employed him he mention trying to de-list it as a potential strategy, but I wasn't sure if that may have been a tactic to try to win our contract. That was another reason for my original post on here.

@wineymummy that's exactly what we're trying to do! Find a way to save a lovely home that's been neglected for 30yrs or more. And so far it seems that it being listed is just standing in our way of doing that. 18 months in Planning and no further forward, so I don't think they could claim we're not trying to maintain it, in fact, it's them preventing us doing so!

@Littlecaf I thinks the complaints on here (and mine) is that Conservation Officers are not all the same. What you're allowed to do with a property is very much luck depending on which county you're in, whose desk it happens to fall on, whether or not they 'like' you and what you're doing etc.
