Planning Circular 1/98 'The Alteration of and Replacement of Windows' Policy 6
Policy requires that if original windows cannot be repaired, visible replacements must have the same method of opening, pattern, section bars, and frame sections as originals.

This strict test for conservation areas led to refusal despite mixed windows nearby.
