Having regard to the scale and position of the proposed two-storey dwelling and garage, the council considers that there there would be a significant loss of daylight and sunlight to the neighbouring property at Hawthorn Cottage. Furthermore, the internal layout of the proposed dwelling would result in a loss of privacy through direct overlooking of parts of the neighbouring property from the first floor bedroom windows. As such, there would be a materially harmful impact upon neighbouring amenity, contrary to Policy CSQ3 of the South Oxfordshire Core Strategy and Policies H4, D1 and D4 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011.

P21/S0136/DISHaving regard to the scale of the proposed two-storey dwelling, its position within the site and inappropriate form and detailing, the council considers that the proposal would represent an intrusive form of backland development, causing material harm to the character and appearance of the site and the special rural character of this part of the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. As such, the proposal is contrary to Policy H10 of the Woodcote Neighbourhood Plan, Policies CSEN1 and CSQ3 of the South Oxfordshire Core Strategy and Policies H4, D1, G2, G4 and C4 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011.
