Conditions / Refusal Reasons
That the development would be contrary to the general, environmental/
countryside and housing policies of the adopted Oxfordshire Structure
Plan 2011, particularly policies G1, G2, EN4 and H1 and the Council's
adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan, particularly policies G1, G5,
G8, C3 and H5. The proposal would result in an undesirable consolidation
of development on the edge of the village which would detract from the
character and visual amenity of the locality, which lies within an
Area of Great Landscape Value.
That having regard to the location of the dwelling on plot 2, to the
windows in the rear elevation and to its relationship with the
neighbouring property, 3 Manor Wood Gate, the proposal would be
detrimental to the amenity of that property on account of the
overlooking and loss of privacy to the private rear garden that it would
cause. As such the proposal would be contrary to the provisions
of the Council's adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan, particularly
policy H5.
