Proposal

(Pre-application) To convert an existing 1960s church hall into a community centre with a church sanctuary for the congregation, formerly based at the old Murton Methodist Church. The main changes include 1) moving from gas central heating to solar power with PV panels mounted on both sloping sides of the main roof. 2) A proposal to redesign the south-facing front elevation to incorporate three enlarged windows to house fused glass panels created by an artist specialising in glass fusion. 3) Install a continuous series of three awnings on the glazed east-facing elevation to provide more sociable external space and associated paving and landscape. 4) Widen the external entry gates by 1 meter towards the east boundary. Incorporate a pedestrian gate. 5) Add a 6-bike sheltered lock-up to the east elevation adjacent to the parking area. 6) Add a lockable buggy enclosure to the west side of the building.
