Environment Policy 35
Requires that within Conservation Areas, only development preserving or enhancing the character or appearance will be permitted, protecting special features. The officer assessed the replacement windows against this, concluding they preserve the area's character as an improvement over non-original existing windows, given the site's street context and mixed window styles.
Planning Circular 1/98, The Alteration and Replacement of Windows
For visible windows, requires same method of opening, pattern/section of glazing bars, and frame sections as originals; material not specified as preferred. The proposal uses casement opening (not matching assumed original sashes) but was accepted as the glazing pattern better resembles sashes than existing casements, constituting an improvement in a street without uniform design.
Time limit
The development hereby permitted shall commence before the expiration of four years from the date of this notice.
