Refusal of Planning Permission on 18th December 1998
Conditions / Refusal Reasons
That policy S3 of the Council's adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan
states that within the primary shopping frontages in Henley-on-Thames
the change of use of a shop (Class A1) to a non-shop use will not be
permitted if it would undermine the vitality and viability, and the
dominant retailing character and function, of the primary shopping
frontage. The concentration of shop uses in this central area of the
prime shopping frontage is important in maintaining the dominant
retailing character and function in Henley-on-Thames town centre, having
regard to the high degree of penetration of non-shop uses into all
the primary shopping frontages defined in the Local Plan Proposals Map.
The development would, therefore, be contrary to the provisions of the
Council's adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan in that the loss of
Class A1 shopping floorspace would undermine the dominant retailing
character and function of the town centre, contrary to policy S3.
