Conditions / Refusal Reasons
That the development would be contrary to the general, environmental
and employment policies of the Oxfordshire Structure Plan 2011,
particularly policies G1, G2 and E3 and the Council's adopted South
Oxfordshire Local Plan, particularly policies G1, G5, C2 and E3. The
site lies in an isolated scatter of development outside the built up
area of Henley-on-Thames and within the Chilterns Area of Outstanding
Natural Beauty. The proposal would result in an undesirable
consolidation of this scatter of development and would detract from
the character and visual amenity of the locality.
That inadequate provision is made within the application site for
car parking, which could lead to car parking elsewhere in the Swiss Farm
complex to the detriment of safety and convenience of residents and
visitors to the area. As such, the development would be contrary
to the provisions of the Council's adopted South Oxfordshire Local
Plan, particularly policy G11.
