Self-build home at 22 Pritchard Close, Berinsfield

“Subdivision of plot, erection of single storey 2 bedroom self-build dwelling with creation of new vehicle access, car parking and amenity space (Amended plan submitted 24 February 2026 showing access to main road and additional supporting information).”

“Amended plans were submitted during the application process to show vehicular access from the site onto Roman Road in response to comments from the Highway Authority. The site layout was also revised slightly to show the new dwelling moved back by about half a metre to ensure both the new and existing dwelling would have sufficient amenity space.”

“There were no objections from neighbours or technical consultees and the application was recommended for approval.”

“A member queried whether a waste collection vehicle could access the property via Roman Road and were advised that bin collection would likely have to be done from the front of the existing property on Pritchard Close. The committee were advised that a condition could be added relating to bin storage.”

“A member requested clarification as to whether the development was backland or infill development and was advised that as it was in the back garden of an existing dwelling it would be viewed as backland infill and assessed as infill under policy H16.”

“Prior to the commencement of the development above slab level hereby approved details of refuse and recycling storage shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The refuse and recycling storage shall be implemented in accordance with the approved details prior to the occupation of the development hereby approved and retained thereafter.”
