Decided by South Oxfordshire Planning Committee on 28 Jan 2026.
Approved
As officers recommended.
No officer report was published for this decision; this summary is from the committee minutes.
- The parish council objected over inadequate parking, and members of the public raised overdevelopment and street-fit concerns.
- Officers recommended approval, saying roof lights should sit at the rear of the roof slopes to match the conservation area appraisal.
- The committee voted to approve the application, adding a condition that the roof lights comply with the conservation area.
