Who lives in a house like this...?

I am a subscriber to, and a supporter of English Heritage, who do a tremendous amount of good work, but I do not necessarily agree with all their views. In particular, their attitude to UPVC windows and satellite dishes. Houses are for living in, and the idea that the inhabitants should have to put up with cold and draughts and a restricted television coverage, just so that passers-by can admire their property from the outside, strikes me as a classic case of the tail wagging the dog.
