Decision
Refusal of Planning Permission on 16th February 2022
Conditions / Refusal Reasons
The proposed development would introduce a dwelling onto this parcel of land, which would conflict with the grain of development in the locality. The two dwellings previously granted planning permission have been consistent with a building line between Pinfold to the west and Cooper's Close/Shepherd's Cottage to the east. Instead, the proposed dwelling would be shoehorned between that building line and the road frontage building line, comprising the village hall, Ridgeway House and 1-5 School Cottages. The cramped nature of the proposal in relation to its surroundings would detract from the character and appearance of the locality and the setting of this part of the village within the Chilterns AONB. It would also fail to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the adjacent Greys Green Conservation Area. As such, the proposal would conflict with the Policies DES1, DES2, ENV1, ENV6 and ENV8 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2035 and advice contained within the South Oxfordshire Design Guide 2016 and the aims and objectives of the NPPF 2021.
