Works: Extension Loft or dormer Windows or glazing
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
Non Material Variation - The proposed amendment is to omit the approved side-facing dormer window, infill this area in matching zinc cladding, and introduce a dual-pitched roof light within the dormer roof. The roof light would be approximately 1.2m long, with each glazed face approximately 600mm.
