Refusal of Planning Permission on 13th January 2023
Conditions / Refusal Reasons
Having regard to the scale, massing and density of the development it would appear cramped and at odds with the established character and appearance of this part of Kennylands Road. The proposed development would therefore be contrary to Policies DES1 and DES2 of the adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2035, the Joint Design Guide and Policy H3 and D1 of the adopted Sonning Common Neighbourhood Plan 2027 and Policies RD1, RD3, RD4 and RH3 of the emerging Sonning Common Neighbourhood Plan.
