Conditions / Refusal Reasons
By virtue of its size, bulk, design and prominent location, the proposed
triple garage building with staff annexe above would constitute an
obtrusive and inappropriate form of development, and having regard to the
existing development on the site, the proposed size of the building would
represent an overdevelopment of the site. As such the proposals would be
detrimental to the character and appearance of this part of the Chilterns
Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and would be contrary to the provisions
of the Council's adopted Rural Areas Local Plan, particularly policies
G5 and C7, and approved South Oxfordshire Local Plan, particularly policies
G8 and C2.
