We have received an application to replace existing timber sash and case windows at 208 Hunter Street on the front side of a listed building with like-for-like timber frames and slim double-glazed units.
The current windows show signs of deterioration, with poor thermal performance and damage caused by the prevailing wind on Hunter Street. The sandstone cleaning process has affected the aesthetic, giving the windows a frosted appearance.
The proposed replacement aligns with preservation policies, ensuring the conservation of the historic building while enhancing energy efficiency. The replacement windows maintain the original design, addressing significant issues in the existing windows that render them incapable of repair.
This summary has been written by another member of the community council (rather than our Planning and Licensing rep) due to a conflict of interest.
Further details can be found at 23/02574/FUL, and all comments, views and objections should be sent by 01/01/2024 to planning&licensing@calton-community-council.scot
