§ Mr. Bevins
St. John's Church is listed under Section 30 of the Town and Country Planning Act, 1947, as a building of special architectural or historic interest. The Act provides that notice of intended demolition must be given to the local planning authority, so that the making of a building preservation order can be considered. No such notice has been given.
