Decision
Refusal of Planning Permission on 24th July 1996
Conditions / Refusal Reasons
That, having regard to their excessive size, inappropriate details
of design and prominent location, the proposed buildings would result
in an incongruous and intrusive form of development which would
detract from the character and amenity of this part of the Chilterns
Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The development would be contrary
to the provisions of the Council's adopted Rural Areas Local Plan
(particularly policies C3 and C7) and approved South Oxfordshire Local
Plan (particularly policies C2 and C8), and there is no overriding
need or other justification for such a large group of buildings which
would warrant any departure from the planning policies of the Local
Planning Authority.
That the development would result in the intensification of the use
of the Kings Farm Lane junction with the Harpsden to Sonning Common
Road which lacks adequate visibility. Thereby, the development would
be detrimental to the safety of users of the public highway and would
be contrary to the provisions of the Council's adopted Rural Areas
Local Plan (particularly policy G7) and approved South Oxfordshire
Local Plan (particularly policy G10).
