The key issue was whether the replacement windows would preserve or enhance the character of the Woodbourne Road Conservation Area per Environment Policy 35.
General Policy 2
Requires development to respect site/surroundings in siting, layout, scale, form, design; not adversely affect townscape character or local amenity. Officer assessed the window replacements as compliant, not harming the Conservation Area's townscape or neighbouring amenity.
Environment Policy 35
Permits only development preserving or enhancing Conservation Area character, protecting special features. The test was met as replacements retain frame features and prioritise visible windows/opening methods per guidance.
Time limit
The development hereby approved shall be begun before the expiration of four years from the date of this decision notice. Reason: To comply with Article 26 of the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) Order 2019 and to avoid the accumulation of unimplemented planning approvals.
Materials approval
Details of the replacement bay windows should be received and approved by the Department in writing before removal of the current bay windows. Reason: To preserve the character and appearance of the Conservation Area.
