- **Decision:** dismissed, 24 August 2026
- **Decided by:** Planning Inspector: P Brennan
- **Authority:** Telford and Wrekin (West Midlands)
- **Appeal reference:** 6006600
- **Application reference:** TWC/2026/0056
- **Procedure:** written-representations
- **Development:** Larger-home prior approval (GPDO Sch2 Pt1 Class A) for a 7.2m-deep single-storey rear extension to a bungalow
- **Site context:** inside-settlement
- **Green Belt:** no
- **Framework applied:** No Framework version cited
- **Determinative policies:** GPDO Sch2 Pt1 Class A.1(d), GPDO Sch2 Pt1 Class A.1(k)
- **Main issues:** permitted development eligibility
- **Tags:** tier-2, no-framework-reference, prior-approval, larger-home-extension, drawing-errors

## Summary
Larger-home extension prior approval for a bungalow. Dismissed. Inconsistent drawings meant the eaves limit in A.1(d) could not be shown to be met, and the extension needed a soil-pipe alteration, which Class A excludes (A.1(k)). The Framework is not relevant to PD eligibility and is not cited.

## What made the difference
Drawing accuracy. Also, a Class G-permitted soil-pipe change cannot be bundled into a Class A extension (DL ¶18).

## Policy findings
- **GPDO Sch2 Pt1 Class A.1(d): fail.** drawings not to scale and inconsistent with annotations and application form; cannot show new eaves would not exceed existing (DL 9-16)
- **GPDO Sch2 Pt1 Class A.1(k): fail.** extension requires soil pipe alteration, excluded from Class A even though Class G would permit it separately (DL 17-20)

## Key facts
- Existing eaves 2.8m by annotation but 2.24m when scaled (DL 11)
- Amenity information held sufficient, but PD eligibility failed (DL 23)
