It is acknowledged that the proposal benefits from an extant permission for a side extension however, this scheme did follow the relevant guidance located within the design guide to reduce the bulk of the extension and promote subservience. The proposed development is contrary to Policy H20 of the adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan and advice in Joint South and Vale Design Guide.
