General Policy 2
Requires development in residential areas to respect site/surroundings in scale, form, design; not adversely affect character, amenity, or road safety. Officer considered the minor replacements acceptable as they would not harm character given the property's setback, prior extensions, and lack of prominence.
Planning Circular 1/98, Category d) OTHER BUILDINGS ERECTED BEFORE 1921, Policy 8
Replacement windows should simulate originals in glazing pattern; relaxed approach allowed if pattern retained (no material restriction). Proposal complies as uPVC windows retain pattern/opening style (minor bay window change acceptable); enhances group appearance in terrace-like setting.
