Rare 16 pane sash window on a London & North Western Railway Company house, Buckingham Street

Victorian and Edwardian sash windows have a great variety of glazing bars. These are the wooden struts that hold the glass in place. Check with preserved sash windows in your terrace for the right patterns.

A few sash windows have what is called margin glazing, with coloured plass or patterned coloured glass in the margins. They will have square corner panels, which may have glass with a sunburst or star pattern.

Glazing bars look best painted in soft white or cream, not brilliant white which is a modern colour.
