7. Decision already issued	X

Reason:

We would strongly advise against replacing timber with plastic windows, as it will have a detrimental effect on the character and appearance of the building. The thicker and heavier looking plastic windows will have a reduced glass area and will be gloomier as a result.

Good timber replacement options are available.
