Guidance on replacement windows in Conservation Areas
The circular prefers replacement windows in principal elevations visible from public thoroughfares to match originals in method of opening, glazing bars, and frame sections.

Time limit
The development hereby permitted shall commence before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice.
