Decision: That planning permission be granted in accordance with the Officer’s recommendation.
Tilings Whittington Road Gobowen Oswestry – 13/01005/OUT
Outline application with some matters reserved for a residential development and alterations to access road.
Decision: That outline planning permission be refused contrary to the Officer’s recommendation for the following reason:
- Taking into account the site location and surroundings, the proposal would lead to sporadic, unsustainable development that would undermine the “rural rebalance” approach to development. As such the proposal is contrary to Policies CS1, CS4, CS5 and CS6 of Shropshire Council’s Core Strategy, and to Government advice contained in the National Planning Policy Framework (in particular paragraph 55; and
- Furthermore the proposed application site would result in a form of development which is not in keeping with the context and character of the immediate area. The existing built form either side of the application site is linear in form, facing Whittington Road, with limited development to the rear of the frontage properties. The proposed application site does not have a frontage to Whittington Road and as such would create a form of development which would be behind the existing built form and appear out of context. As such would be contrary to the aims of policy CS6 to protect, restore or enhance the natural, built and historic environment.
