The proposed works should not result in an increased thickness of the dome roof, but ensure it retains its historic dimensions. viii) Detailed window condition survey including a detailed description of the existing timber windows and any surviving historic glazing, accompanied by a photographic record of the windows. Details of the extent of the required repairs should be outlined in a method statement which must demonstrate the works will be carried out in line with best conservation practice. Clear justification that an entire window is not repairable will be required in advance of approval for such interventions. Where windows are clearly shown to be beyond repair, any proposed replacements must be historically correct timber casement windows, which are accurately based on originals. Details of the proposed new windows and glazing should be submitted (1:20 scaled drawings). Please note that in the case of historic windows which retain historic glazing, new replacement windows will not be permitted. These shall be repaired. ix) Details of the proposed new glazing should also be submitted. The replacement of surviving historic glass will not be permitted. The applicant shall ensure that any proposed slimline glass replacements conform to EU directives and shall confirm this in writing to the Planning Authority.

The applicant shall ensure that the detailing of the windows 1:5 details of the glazing bars/frames are to be provided demonstrating the proposed glazing is appropriate for the historic joinery. The glazing shall be putty-fixed. x) A detailed methodology, cross-referenced to drawings is to be provided for the repair of the front porch roof. xii) Confirmation of the surviving wall finish to the walls where insulation is proposed. xiii) A detailed methodology for the careful lifting, labelling, setting aside and storage of historic joinery in rooms where the application of internal insulation is proposed.
