Decision Refusal of Listed Building Consent on 22nd February 2008
Conditions / Refusal Reasons The subdivision of the plot and the resulting changes to the barn and proposed garden would domesticate the character of the barn and its surroundings, detracting from the rural character and setting of the listed farmhouse and the curtilage listed building and the character and appearance of the West Hagbourne Conservation Area. As such, the proposal would be contrary to Policies CON3, CON4, CON5 and CON7 of the adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan and to the advice contained in PPG15 "Planning and the Historic Environment".

That having regard to the details of the scheme, which includes the blocking up of existing openings, provision of new openings, new internal subdivisions and new floors the proposal to convert the barn to a dwelling would detract from the special architectural and historic interest of the barn, which is a curtilage listed building and the character and appearance of the West Hagbourne Conservation Area. As such the proposal would be contrary to Policies CON3, CON4 and CON7 of the adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan and to the advice contained in PPG15 "Planning and the Historic Environment".
