A case was brought by North Northamptonshire Council following serious concerns about the building work
The developer of a six-storey building in Job’s Yard, Kettering has been ordered to demolish the building following a three-day trial in Birmingham High Court. The case was brought by North Northamptonshire Council following serious concerns about the building work.
The unauthorised structure resulted in formal action from the council’s building control and planning enforcement teams, supported by the Health and Safety Executive. Due to the current unsafe nature of the building, a cordon has been in place around the site since June 2022. The cordon will remain in place to ensure the safety of the public is maintained until after the demolition has been completed.
“We are pleased that the court found in our favour and we will continue to monitor the situation to ensure that the developer follows the orders set out by the court. Following the demolition, we will be able to look at the safety of the area and consider removing the cordon in place, which will benefit residents of Kettering and businesses around the site.”
