Conditions / Refusal Reasons
That the design, location and materials used in the proposed development fail to protect local distinctiveness; and the scale and type of development exceeds that which is commensurate with a local public house/restaurant in a village setting contrary to policies G2, G6, D1 and TSM4 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011.
That the intensification in the use of the site associated with the marquee results in a loss of amenity to the occupiers of nearby properties from noise generated by an activity that is not compatible with the scale or character of its surroundings. In this regard the development is contrary to policies EP2 and TSM4 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011.
That the marquee structure is damaging to the attractive landscape setting of the settlement contrary to policy C4 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011.
That the proposed marquee by reason of its size, scale, location, design, use of materials and its failure to respect local distinctiveness adversely affects the setting of listing buildings which form part of the hotel complex contrary to policy CON5 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011.
That inadequate provision has been made for car parking in connection with both the existing approved and proposed development, which is likely to exacerbate existing neighbourhood amenity issues relating to street parking in Bear Lane contrary to policies D2, T2 and TSM4 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011. It has not been demonstrated that adequate car parking is capable of being provided in a manner that would not be harmful to the countryside contrary to policy G4 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011.
