Port Sunlight Local Listed Building Consent Order

We Asked

Residents were asked to tell us about their views on the proposed changes to the Port Sunlight Local Listed Building Consent Order (LLBCO). In particular, residents were asked about the proposed categories of permitted works, these were: outdoor buildings, Vacuum Insulated Glazing (VIG) and satellite dishes.

You Said

• 16 people responded to the survey.
• 50% of respondents did not agree with the proposed amendments and 25% agreed.
• The main reason for respondents not agreeing with the proposed amendments was the proposed removal of existing consent for satellite dishes.
• The main reasons for agreeing with the proposed amendments were clarity on compliance, energy savings and buildings should not be frozen in time.

We Did

The updated LLBCO came into effect November 2025 and will be effective until November 2040. The following works are included in the Port Sunlight LLBCO:

• replace severely deteriorated or inappropriate, yard gates, rear doors, rear windows and outbuilding doors
• install vacuum insulated glazing (VIG) or slim-line double glazing or single glazing with the option of secondary glazing.

The provision in the 2015 Order for the installation of satellite dishes was removed due to the availability of modern digital alternatives.
