Rules for window and glass graphics in Abercarn
Often the bigger question with glass is safety rather than planning. Glazing that people could walk into must be marked so it is visible, and in workplaces the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 (regulation 14) require it where necessary; the building guidance used in Wales shares that aim. Planning can still matter. Councils in Wales treat window graphics in different ways, and large graphics on listed shopfronts or within conservation areas may be restricted, even though internal graphics are often allowed.
