JMI Planning provided specialist planning and heritage consultancy services to support the sensitive conversion of Littleover Hall, one of Derby’s most significant historic buildings.
Working alongside Matthew Montague Architects and Ivygrove, JMI helped secure planning permission for the restoration and residential conversion of the former Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Headquarters, ensuring the long-term future of this landmark Victorian mansion. The scheme involved the careful subdivision of the hall into three substantial dwellings whilst retaining the architectural character, historic fabric and unique features that contribute to its significance.
JMI provided a thorough Planning and Heritage Statement submitted in support of the application, supplying a detailed assessment of the site context and impact of the proposed works. The strategy focused on establishing a viable and sustainable future use for the building, highlighting our expertise in navigating complex heritage-led developments and delivering positive outcomes for historically significant buildings.
