Date

Role
Historic Buildings Consultant
About
Dublin City Council sought the services of a Historic Buildings Consultant to assess 4 no. historic properties in Aungier Street for potential addition to the Record of Protected Structures (RPS). Inclusion in the RPS grants legislative protection to buildings, both internally and externally as well as to curtilage structures, and requires permission for some alterations and works which would be considered Exempted Development in non-protected structures. Part IV of the Planning and Development Act 2000 sets out that in order to be considered eligible for inclusion in the RPS, buildings must be assessed and found to be of architectural, historical, archaeological, artistic, cultural, social, scientific or technical importance.
Sunni’s role included: archival research, cartographic analysis, on-site investigation, written and photographic records, building chronology, GIS site and curtilage mapping, and an assessment of appropriateness for inclusion in the RPS.
