Looking at a property which was built 1920ish and has black painted timber frame lead lined windows, many of them have rot.

Attached are some examples.

Are we looking at replacements or fixing? What are the costs? If replacement, can you replace with double glazed versions? It's not listed or in a conservation area

You can repair wood with products like dry flex resin but maybe new windows would be better.
Lead is just stuck on and that can be done after windows are fitted. Unless you want the lead inside double glazing.
My neighbour leaded their windows but when they sold house the new people ripped it off.
I heard windows start at £500 each fitted as a guide. 10 windows is 5k. Probably gone up now. It's cheaper in January I heard as now is peak season
 
It doesn't look stuck on! Are you sure? Here's a closer pic
