The Enforcers Turn Up

Unfortunately we get a visit, whilst we are on site a couple of enforcement officers turn up not looking too pleased with what we are doing without the relevant permission. They may have been alerted to our clear out by Dave's massive skip parked at the front or possibly just on a random day out from the office to have a look at Grade II listed buildings in the area, I suspect the former. After a long conversation where we explained that what we were throwing out was in fact worthless and couldn't possibly be listed, we were told to halt all works and that we couldn't do anything until we got approval, we were going to be in for a long wait. We decided to go for a drink and let the planning and listed building consent take its course.
