Decision
Refusal of Planning Permission on 13th May 1998
Conditions / Refusal Reasons
That, having regard to its height, form and prominent siting within
the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, particularly when
viewed from the south-west and east, the proposed 25 metre high
lattice work tower with associated antennae and microwave dishes
would constitute an intrusive and incongruous form of development
which would be detrimental to the special landscape character and
appearance of this part of the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural
Beauty.  Therefore, the development would be contrary to the provisions
of the Council's adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan, particularly
policies G1, G15, C1 and C2.  The applicants' justification for the
proposed tower in this location does not warrant any departure from
the planning policies of the Local Planning Authority.

Appeal

        No appeal lodged.
