Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether or not the proposal is a suitable form of development given its location in the open countryside
  • Whether or not the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Oxford Canal Conservation Area and its setting
  • Whether or not the proposal makes adequate provision for footpath and highway improvements
  • The effect of the proposal on highway safety

What decided it

The proposal's location in the open countryside contrary to Policy ESD16, combined with unacceptable harm to the Oxford Canal Conservation Area's character and appearance, outweighed the modest economic and other benefits offered.
