Consultation has concluded

Decision: Classification of church remains at "considerable significance".

At its 14 December 2021 meeting, Council voted against the reclassification of the Church of St Martin in the Field and Durbridge Hall at 50 Dyson Street Kensington on the City's Local Heritage Inventory.

Minutes of the Council meeting are available on the City's website. The refusal of the reclassification concludes the progression of the application for 50 Dyson Street, Kensington. Thank you to everyone who participated.

Background: Feedback sought on 50 Dyson Street, Kensington - Memorial Church of St Martin in the Field and Durbridge Hall

An application was received from the owners of the property to reclassify the place from being of ‘considerable significance’ (Management Category B) to ‘little significance’ (Management Category D), as described in the City’s Local Heritage Inventory. If approved, this would have seen 50 Dyson Street removed from the City’s Heritage List and reclassified to 'little significance' (Management Category D). This would allow the City to make a decision on a separate application that has been received for the demolition of buildings on the site.

We asked: Tell us what you think about the reclassification?

The City sought feedback from nearby property owners, residents and the wider community about the reclassification. The feedback, along with the heritage reports and a structural report, was considered as part of a report presented to Council for its consideration and decision making.

How was feedback provided?

Hard copy surveys are available at the City's Civic Centre and South Perth and Manning libraries.

Feedback closed at 4pm, Wednesday 10 November 2021.

  • Share Heritage issues aside, I note on Intramaps that the site (and the adjoining Brandon St blocks) are identified as Public Assembly and not Residential Housing.

    Hello. Thank you for your question. Single Houses and Grouped Dwellings (units/townhouses) are both discretionary uses within the Public Assembly zone and therefore may be permitted by the City without the need to change the zoning from Public Assembly to Residential. Any future application the City receives for residential development on the site may be advertised to the community where required by the City’s Local Planning Policy P301 Advertising of Planning Proposals.

  • Share You mention in a previous question that 4x two-storey dwellings could be built. Is this just in the space where the church resides or the area with the shop also? I assume the developers own the entire strip, so what is possible for them to build across the whole area? on Facebook Share You mention in a previous question that 4x two-storey dwellings could be built.

    Hi there. Thanks for your question. The place (50 Dyson Street) refers to the site that contains the church and the hall only. The owners of this place also own the two properties fronting Brandon Street. Should the owners combine these two properties with 50 Dyson Street, then a total of 8 x two-storey dwellings could be developed across the 2,435sqm site.
