The Stanley Board School, located on Front Street, will have part of it torn down in phase one due to structural problems that posed a risk of the building collapsing.

Heavy machines will handle the demolition work, keeping all debris inside the area, and the demolition will have ecological oversight because bats could be living at the site, as detailed in a bat method statement.

After demolition, hoarding will surround the area, but plans for rebuilding haven’t been shared yet; Sophie Gooch from Pegasus Group submitted the plan, and no one objected, supported, or commented on it publicly.

Design experts are unhappy about the lack of future plans, worrying about a boring street for a long time, and the demolition must start within five years, following approval on March 3rd with work only allowed during certain hours to limit noise for neighbors.

Demolition depends on following the bat method and other ecological rules, as well as building regulations approval before starting, so Durham County Council will check everything to ensure the plan follows the rules.
