Council planning record

Replacement of three existing windows on the principal (front) elevation: two serving the living room and one serving the hall. The existing windows are white uPVC sliding sash units. The proposed replacement windows will also be white uPVC units and will maintain the existing appearance of the property. The new windows will incorporate a centrally positioned dummy transom bar, replicating the sightlines and proportions of the existing sliding sash windows and ensuring consistency with the wider terrace. There will be no change to the frame material, colour, overall window size, opening arrangement as viewed externally, or the architectural character. The only alteration is to the method of operation, with the existing sliding sash mechanism being replaced by a tilt-and-turn opening system to improve functionality as well as ease and safety of maintenance. This change will not materially affect the external appearance of the property or its contribution to the character of the area
