Listed building consent for Installation of a commemorative plaque

Listed Building Consent for a Commemorative Plaque Celebrating UK-Ukraine Relations Approved in RBKC

Installing a commemorative plaque to celebrate 100 years of diplomatic relations between Ukraine and the UK requires Listed Building Consent, even for the Ukrainian Embassy in London. This plaque will honor the historical significance of the building, which served as the first location for diplomatic relations between 1919 and 1921.

The Approval Process

4D Planning assisted the embassy in preparing the application for Listed Building and advertisement consent. The application was submitted to the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (RBKC), where discussions focused on the plaque's size and material to ensure compliance with local guidelines.

Given the building's Grade II listed status, it was crucial to address all aspects of Islington Council’s policies regarding alterations to listed properties. The approval process involved careful consideration of how the plaque would integrate with the existing architecture while preserving the building's historical character.
