It depends. Any work that affects the historical or architectural character of a listed building needs listed building consent. This applies to the interior as well as the exterior. The listing has the potential to cover every aspect of the building

There is a pub in Cambridge as I recall which has a ceiling mentioned in the listing because of the Second World War graffiti written on it.

My experience is that by asking the conservation section of the planning department for their opinion before I started that they became confident of my business and quietly ( and unofficially) recommended me to people.

If there was plasterboard there before then it can be said to be a like-for-like repair if not, lath and plaster for example you need to be careful. Often the interior is so affected by alterations that all the architectural or historic character has been lost anyway.

If the interior is a heap of crap take photographs to protect yourself if it isn't tell the client that the best advice is to take the opinion of the conservation officer.

Part of the job i did in Southamton was in the old Crown Court and all the graffiti carved in doors etc had to be kept bar the explicits.

Yeah I coming around to a believe that there is no such thing as rising damp but if I were to say so irish-spread and flynnyman would argue that there was.
