10 Lion Street Brecon LD3 7HY

Proposal

Upgrading of the existing maisonette above the Red Cross Charity Shop at 10 Lion Street, Brecon by: Removing non-original internal partitions to create a suitable habitable space; Replacement of the 1950's style fireplace in the lounge with a timber fire surround, more inkeeping with the age of the building; Removing the 2nd floor ceilings which have of a 5 mm hardboard covering. It is proposed to create a vaulted ceiling to compensate for the existing low ceiling height; Encapsulating the existing internal walls with a timber stud lining that will both protect the existing walls, and allow for the installation of a new electrical wiring sytem without impacting on the listed structure and finishes; Installing timber suspended ceilings on the 1st floor to protect the original finishes and allow for electrical re-wiring; Installing some new partions on the 2nd floor to allow for the construction of a new bathroom; Alterations to an existing toilet block area (built circa 1960) to create a home office.
