Conditions / Refusal Reasons
That, having regard to its design, height and materials, the 1.8m metal
railing fence constitutes an incongruous and inappropriate form of
development which is out of keeping with the rural character and
appearance of this part of Stoke Row Road. As such, it represents an
incongruous and suburban feature in the locality to the detriment of
the character and appearance of the area which lies adjacent to the
Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Therefore, the
development is contrary to the provisions of the Council's adopted
Rural Areas Local Plan, particularly policy G5, and approved South
Oxfordshire Local Plan (as proposed to be modified), particularly
policy G8.
