Requires development in Conservation Areas to preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Area and protect special features. The officer assessed the window replacement as compliant, having a neutral impact since it replicates existing design elements without affecting the terrace's key brickwork feature.
Policy 6 in Planning Circular 1/98 'The Alteration and Replacement of Windows'
Mandates that replacement windows readily visible from public thoroughfares must have the same method of opening, pattern/section of glazing bars, and frame sections as originals. The proposal was tested against this for front elevation windows adjoining the pavement; it matches exactly, with same top-hung casement style, fixed lower and opening upper sections.
Time limit
The development hereby permitted shall commence before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice.
