Brigg Town Council would like to see some parts of an existing building - in a prominent location - incorporated in its replacement which is planned for the site beside the A18 on Bridge Street.
Permission to demolish Pelham House was granted many months ago, and now approval is being sought to erect a dwelling with detached annexe.
Brigg Town Council's Planning & Environment Committee - consulted about the application - has no objection to the proposal but feels it would be good if some of the architectural features of the original dwelling can be retained.
The existing property is now fenced off but these pictures, taken on Friday, show the upper floor with window cornishes.
Keigar Homes is the applicant, and North Lincolnshire Council will make a funal decision in due course. It has been furnished with the Brigg authority's views.
The new property, if approved, will have four bedrooms and a detached annexe/garage.
