Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be permitted development under Class AA(b) of the Order having regard to the requirements of paragraphs AA.1(d), (h) and (i)
- if so, whether prior approval is required with regard to the conditions set out in paragraphs AA.2(3)(a)(i) and (ii)
What decided it
The additional storey would not be constructed entirely on the principal part of the dwellinghouse as required by paragraph AA.1(i) because it would extend above a lower-height side extension, thereby failing to qualify as permitted development under Class AA(b).
