Village sashes and Wimbledon Hill Road bays
Merton's Wimbledon Hill Road appraisal records Victorian sliding sash windows and bay forms, while its Wimbledon Village material records timber sliding sashes. Those documented forms still need their real reveal, glazing divisions and geometry checked window by window.
We align the condition check with the real glazing pattern, inspect every bay face and follow panel gaps through the hinges and frame joints. If older panels remain stable, that evidence can support repair or restoration; if distortion or weak fixings affect the assembly, surface work alone will not resolve the operating problem. For the Village and Hill Road examples, the decision therefore stays anchored to the sash recess or bay geometry, protecting the window's proportions while identifying the mechanical work needed for reliable opening and closing.
