Request

Please treat this email as a formal request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and/or the Environmental Information Regulations 2004.
I am seeking access to the complete historic and modern planning ledger for the site detailed below. Because these records pre-date your modern online planning portal, I am requesting a comprehensive manual search of your archived files, microfiche records, and off-site paper repositories.
Site Details:
•    Property Name: Manor Lodge (historically Manor Lodge Probation Hostel)
•    Address: 8 Straight Road, Old Windsor, Berkshire, SL4 2RL
Scope of Information Requested:
I am requesting access to all previous and subsequent planning applications, building control records, and structural plans held by the Council for this address, with particular focus on:
1.    The 1965–1968 Conversion Records: All original application forms, architectural floor plans, elevation drawings, and Council committee minutes/Decision Notices regarding the structural conversion of Manor Lodge into a residential hostel (following the Trust Deed of 4 November 1965).
2.    All Prior & Subsequent Records: Any surviving historic maps or building applications relating to the original 19th-century Manor Lodge footprint, as well as all subsequent expansion or modification applications submitted for the site from 1968 to the present day.
If these files are held on microfiche, please advise if they can be scanned and emailed to me, or how I can arrange a slot to inspect the physical microfiche cards in person at Maidenhead Library.
