Go for it. There may be several contraventions. Buidling regulations
approval. Planning approval. Listed building approval. I might have
some sympathy with a homeowner making a mistake, a developer should
know better. If one person is taking the p***, others will follow and
you may soon live amongst stone cladding and upvc. If he didn't like
the rules, he shouldn't have bought the house, and left it for somebody
that does appreciate a conservation area.

One of the professors here is disabled. She installed PVC doors so that she
could easily get in and out of her house. They started to harass her about
it, but I believe she just paid the fine and kept her doors. It was in the
times last year.
