Replaced skylight on rear extension roof. ,Previous skylight timber framed, had x3 window panes and was single glazed. Replaced by a new timber framed skylight with x2 panes and is double glazed. Outside appearance is very similar; before and after photos can be provided. Prior to the works being carried out I reviewed the council online guidance and although the building is grade C listed it is not in a conservation area and therefore permission was not sought.
