Original sash window on the left contrasts greatly with the replacement window on the right, both on same terrace. Note how the replacement window required 'bricking in' at the top. Also how the stone sill was unecessarily removed. To complete the mess the window was fitted flush to the brickwok. Look at the state its already in, only being about a quarter of the age of the original sash!
