1 Belgrave Crescent Lane Edinburgh EH4 3AG
Non-Material Variation to 19/01117/FUL - change of previously approved sash and case window to revert to casement formation on front elevation of property. Previously installed window was casement style, permission was approved to lower cill and change to sash and case, however it is proposed to reinstall casement style with the lowered cill. Increase height of ridge light along apex of roof as installed to 400mm. In order for the structure of the ridge light to work appropriately a 150mm timber packing piece had to be installed above what was approved, which has also allowed the window to be flashed appropriately to ensure longevity. Paint existing windows dark grey to match previously approved steelwork details.
