ProposalDescription: 

Application for condonation of unlawful work including unlawful Entrance Structure and unlawful Seating Structure on generally 'Protected' site that is older than 60 years, Moseley Station, 4072Z Fairfield Road, Moseley, Pinetown.

Expanded_Motivation: 

Moseley Station is on the District 1 Line of the "Old Natal Main line". The District 1 line was first opened in 1878, however Moseley Station was not on the original line in 1880 (as seen in the steam rail timetable for December 1880). The station is older than 60 years, and has limited heritage significance due to its position on the historic rail line. It also has no structures on it that are more than 60 years. A description of the illegal work that has taken place on the site is below: Entrance Structure Galvanised streel frame structure using circular steel hollow sections with gates Partially-covered by a corrugated sheeting roof with timber trusses and battens Seating Structure Masonry seating structure with concrete and masonry bench. Back and side rest walls to timber beam height- painted but not plastered. Masonry piers on North and South ends of structure, plastered and painted, supporting a timber beam which supports timber rafters and purlins on which corrugated roof sheeting is supported.
