Milner Homes want to build seven town houses on the site, which used to be the Wakefield Corporation Maternity hospital.
An objection from the Victorian Society, which campaigns to project Victorian and Edwardian buildings from being destroyed, states: “Given its former use as a maternity home, the building demonstrates significant local historic value, as set out in the Historic England Conservation Principles.
“Any agreed demolition will have a negative impact on the immediate area, including the adjacent St John’s Conservation Area, and wider heritage of Wakefield. The property was built in 1889 and designed by J W Connon, a well-known architect of his time who also worked on the Metropole Hotel in Leeds.
