Royal Victoria Hotel
The Royal Victoria Hotel is a privately-owned Grade II listed building in St. Mary’s Street, Newport.
It has been neglected by the owner for a number of years.
Following an inspection by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and ongoing investigations by Telford & Wrekin Council, the building is considered dangerous and the owner has not been able to demonstrate that the building (or its supporting structures) are safe.
If any building or structure is considered to be a danger to the public, Building Control surveyors will take steps to protect the general public.
Building Control surveyors will investigate all reports of dangerous buildings and structures. They will take steps to contact the owner and either make it safe, isolate it or remove the danger.
Upon investigating the structure, the owner will be informed of the extent of remedial works required to make it safe. Failure to execute the works within a specified time period may lead to us taking legal action in the interests of public safety.
In extreme circumstances we can invoke emergency powers to require that the building or structure is made safe or demolished immediately and recover the costs associated with any such measures from the owner of the building.
If you have any concerns contact the Building Control team to report a dangerous structure.
