This statement is in reference to the proposal of the replacement of 14no. Casement windows throughout the property. Our client intends to replace the existing windows with new double-glazed heritage timber casement windows installing them into the existing brickwork apertures. All new windows will replicate the existing glazing bar configurations with emphasis on slim section sizes and glazing making sure to complement the property's and surrounding area's heritage. The proposed replacements will not alter the overall size of the windows or brickwork openings. (see proposed design specifications)
