Impact in Planning Process

With the help of Planning Consultants Janet O’Neill Associates and our Design team, led by LDN Architects, The Belfrey submitted a planning application for Impact, its Repair & Reordering project, at the end of May 2022. We have received some helpful and supportive comments and look forward to learning what the outcome will be. In the meantime we have started to progress the Technical Design of certain features and prepare the final pack of information required for a Faculty application which will be submitted to the Diocese of York. Under Ecclesiastical law, St Michael le Belfrey will need to get permission from the Diocese for the changes it wishes to make within the Church building. We have now worked with a number of advisory bodies for nearly four years and appreciate the consultation process will help us to provide a beautifully transformed Church Building that is flexible, accessible and welcoming and Resources our Future.
