Petition Goes Live - Please Sign Up

Follow this link to sign our online petition to get Gillespie Crescent Listed.

Surprised it isn't already Listed? So were we. Listing would prevent irresponsible HMO letting agencies ruining some of these wonderful Victorian flats by subdividing living rooms with walls along the length to overload flats with two extra bedrooms and ruining corncies and fireplaces in the process. Bedrooms end up above and below living rooms and the inevitable noise conflicts follow.

Repair grants and VAT zero rating your flat alterations (senistive ones that is) are other benefits of being Listed. If Marchmont Crescent and Warrender Park Crescent are B Listed . . . why isn't our wonderful street!
