Oswestry homes and windows

A market town about five miles from the Welsh border, with older terraces and railway-era housing: about 21% of homes were built before 1919.

Conservation areas and Article 4

The Oswestry Conservation Area was designated in 1985 and covers the historic centre.

Oswestry has no Article 4 Direction, so normal conservation area rules apply. Listed buildings still need listed building consent for new windows.

Check your address on Shropshire Council's conservation area and Article 4 map before you order. Where permission is needed, a householder planning application costs £548.

Listed buildings

Oswestry has about 138 listed buildings, including Llwyd Mansion on Cross Street and the Church of St Oswald. Changing windows on a listed building needs listed building consent before any work starts, which is free to apply for. Repairing the existing windows and adding secondary glazing is often the preferred route.

Typical prices

A standard uPVC double glazed window typically costs £450 to £800 fitted, and a three bedroom semi £4,000 to £7,500 in uPVC. Timber sashes, often needed in conservation areas and listed buildings, are about £1,500 to £3,000 each. Windows carry 20% VAT. See our windows price guide.
