Listed Building Consent Secured for Kirkham Grammar School

We are pleased to share that Leith Planning has successfully secured Listed Building Consent for the replacement of the cast iron rainwater goods on the front façade of Kirkham Grammar School.

Kirkham Grammar School is a Grade II Listed Building, rich in heritage and history. Any works to such buildings must meet stringent criteria to ensure that their character and architectural significance are preserved for future generations.

The replacement of the rainwater goods—though a relatively modest intervention—required careful planning and sensitivity to the fabric and aesthetics of the original building. The consent now granted will allow the school to progress with a wider programme of essential repairs and improvements, helping to future-proof this landmark site while maintaining its historic integrity.

This outcome reflects Leith Planning’s commitment to navigating the complexities of the planning and heritage system to deliver practical, conservation-minded solutions for our clients. We are proud to contribute to the ongoing stewardship of such a prestigious educational institution.
