Has anyone had any success with this and might be willing to share tips for getting it approved?
A few more specifics:
- we fall under Stroud District Council
- the house is a derelict, 18th century farmhouse
- the windows are rolled steel/Crittall type, although the date they were installed is under dispute. Council think 19th century, so still not original windows, but they want them restored and retained regardless. We think they are newer and therefore could be deemed inappropriate anyway
If anyone has had success with this and might be able to share contacts for a heritage specialist or anyone else who might help (possibly someone sympathetic to our cause?!), give any tips for how to get it through the planners or can provide any other info we’d be very grateful!
