Repairs notice
- a notice which can be served on the owner of a listed building in poor condition,
specifying works which must be undertaken, and a timescale for their completion. If the notice
is not complied with, it can be used as a forerunner to compulsory purchase.
An interesting and informative Study of Repairs Notices was undertaken by Bob Kindred, on
behalf of the Association of Conservation Officers (now IHBC). see
