Re: Re: Irish say no to PVC windows

Ugh – unbelievable. So typical of the crassness being permitted across the city’s suburbs.

Some great houses there Dave, thanks. Interestingly pretty much every house shown dates from the 1960s, indicating quite clearly how late steel windows were used, right up until the mass-availability of aluminium in the same decade.

The second Rockfield house has (dodgy) secondary glazing, but is at least an example of what can be done with steel windows. The first Rockfield has very unusual steel casements over the garage!

Those bungalows could look fantastic restored as a complete composition. Unfortunate they look so horribly institutional in their current tatty state 🙁
