Re: Re: Irish say no to PVC windows

Once again some fantastic pictures from Graham! Yes the steel windows are dying out unfortunately, there’s only 2 houses on my road of 24 houses with them left – a whole 8%!!!!!! wow! I’m forever saying ill take pictures of these houses – there are so so many of them scattered and I could point out almost all of them. There was a fantastic double fronted house with steel windows on Wainsfort Road up until about 5 weeks ago when they were replaced – and me being as slow as I am didn’t take any photos. The only house with steels left now on Wainsfort road has big plywood boards up around it – that can only mean big renovations!!!

As for the original joinary in the 30’s corpo’s – there’s still loads of them around with much finer examples than the above.

Just thinking actually I spotted pretty good steel reproductions last week and Im nearly sure it was on the Crumlin Road somewhere – ill get on the case tomorrow!
