On expiry of this notice, the site will be re-inspected and if the works outlined in the Notice have not been completed satisfactorily legal proceedings may be initiated against the registered owners.
This property was also referred to the Dangerous Structures Section of the Architectural Services Department who carried out an inspection and have sent a letter to the registered owners asking them to carry out the following works:
· Secure all openings at 1 & 3 St Bridgid's Cottages
