Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether prior approval should be granted when the proposed development is assessed against condition AA.2(3)(a)(ii) of the GPDO in relation to the external appearance of the dwellinghouse

What decided it

The modest height of the proposed extension, combined with its sympathetic design replicating existing materials and architectural detail, would not result in visual dominance or harm to the character and appearance of the area.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies: Policy EE1 of the Runnymede 2030 Local Plan (2020)
National Planning Policy Framework: Paragraph 12

How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
