I am applying for retrospective planning for UPVC windows that were fitted at the rear of 2 Roslyn Terrace prior to me purchasing the house. The windows were fitted in approx. 2002 and the UPVC windows are only at the rear of the property. I have provided photos of the windows from the outside of the house and also the insert from within the windows which I believe shows the date they were produced.
I bought the house from my father 41 / 2 years ago and he believes they were fitted in 2002. He believes he did not need planning permission to do this at the time as he has indicated he was informed he only needed planning permission for windows at the front of the property. He did apply for planning to install windows in the front of the house in 2002 but this was declined and the original windows remain at the front.
When I bought the house the advocates I used did not pick up on the potential need for planning for these windows otherwise I would have addressed this before now.
I have provided the questionnaire that my father filled out for the advocates at the time of purchase that indicates the windows were fitted at approx. 2002
If you need any further information please do not hesitate to contact me.
