The style does not change the planning position; size, height and location do. Listed buildings and conservation areas are the main cases where consent is more likely to be needed.

With the midsummer sun about 57.8° high at noon, roof glass in Saltcoats gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
