Decision
Refusal of Planning Permission on 13th May 1998
Conditions / Refusal Reasons
That, having regard to its height, form and prominent siting, particularly
when viewed from the playing fields within the Bishops Wood Sports Centre
grounds, the proposed tower and associated antennae would constitute an
intrusive and incongruous form of development which would be detrimental
to the 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 a tower in this specific location does not warrant any departure
from the planning policies of the Local Planning Authority.
