Minutes:

Resolved:           That the following observations be made on the applications listed below:-

 

1 River Lea Mews, Madeley  18/00652/FUL

 

The Working Party had no objections and recommends that the brickwork is tied in to ensure it blends into the existing.

 

 

 

 

 

181 Holloway Lane, Aston 18/00682/FUL

 

 

 

The Working Party had no objections to the amendment.

 

 

 

Sites of Horwood, Lindsay and Barnes, Keele University  18/00698/FUL

 

The Working Party concluded that the scheme was overall more sympathetic and restrained than the previous scheme.  Regarding the possible materials, they raised concern about the possible brick at Horwood A & B being too dark and a little oppressive.  They recommended that in general there was a balance of colours and materials within the design.    Horwood – concerns over the uniformity of layout given the context of Keele and the lack of uniformity and the affect that this may have of the feeling of “place”.  They had concerns over the very steep roof pitches on the town houses and the fact that they may date and are very alien feature within the campus.  This is more an issue on the smaller groups.  They wished consideration to be given to variation of roofs maybe occasional monopitches and reducing the angle of the pitches.  Lindsay - They asked for clarification on the cladding at Lindsay town houses and suggested that more earthy colours were used than a buff brick.  The Working Party also commented that they wished the provision of disabled rooms not to be grouped in one place but spread around the campus.
