Heritage windows

Heritage windows for Dorking houses: four ways to get the look

The right window for a Dorking house depends on when it was built. These four pages cover the styles that suit the town's streets, in the order most owners need them.

• Sash windows

  For the Victorian streets of Tower Hill, Cliftonville and the 1890s terraces.

• Flush casement windows

  For Westcott cottages, interwar houses and the post-war estates.

• Steel-look aluminium windows

  For 1930s houses that once had metal windows, and for garden sides.

• Timber windows

  For listed buildings, and where an Article 4 direction leads to timber.

Not sure which applies? The age table on the home page is the quickest place to start, and Planning in Dorking covers the listed and Article 4 cases.
