Relevant Development Plan and Other Policies)
PN8 PLANNING & REGULATION COMMITTEE – 8 MARCH 2021 Policy Annex (Relevant Development Plan and other Policies) West Oxfordshire Local Plan 2031 (WOLP): POLICY OS1: PRESUMPTION IN FAVOUR OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT Planning applications that accord with the policies in this Local Plan (and, where relevant, with policies in Neighbourhood Plans) will be approved, unless material considerations indicate otherwise. Where there are no policies relevant to the application or relevant policies are out of date at the time of making the decision then the Council will grant permission unless material considerations indicate otherwise – taking into account whether: Any adverse impacts of granting permission would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits, when assessed against the policies in the National Planning Policy Framework taken as a whole; or Specific policies in that Framework indicate that development should be restricted. POLICY OS2: LOCATING DEVELOPMENT IN THE RIGHT PLACES Main service centres, rural service centres and villages A significant proportion of new homes, jobs and supporting services will be focussed within and on the edge of the main service centres of Witney, Carterton and Chipping Norton. A number of site allocations are proposed to ensure identified needs are met. The distribution of development is set out in Policy H1. Due to the size of the settlement and its proximity and connections to Oxford City, Eynsham will also make a significant contribution towards meeting the identified housing needs of the District and Oxford City with a strategic urban extension to be provided to the west of the village. A new rural service centre – Oxfordshire Cotswold Garden Village – will be created to the north of Eynsham and contribute towards Oxford City’s needs.

Excavations at Callow Hill, Glympton and Stonesfield, Oxon
Excavations at Callow H ill, Glympton and Stonesfield, Oxon. By NICHOLAS THOMAS INTRODUCTION HE excavations described in this report were carried out by the Oxford University Archaeological Society in order to throw new light on the problemsT posed by the group of Roman villas that lies in the area defined by the north Oxfordshire Grim's Dyke. It was agreed that this could best be done by investigating the ditch which enclosed one of these villas-Callow Hill, 3! miles NW of Woodstock ( ational Grid: 42/40919s)-and the prominent earthworks immediately to the east of it. These earthworks appeared to have much in common with Grim's Dyke itself, which runs through Blenheim Park about one mile farther towards Woodstock. It was hoped that it would be possible to deduce some relationship, either chrono logical or political, between the villa at Callow Hill-and hence, to some extent, between the other villas hereabouts-and Grim's Dyke. The work was carried out during the first three weeks of September, 1950, under my direction, assisted by Mr. Alan Hunter.' No previous research had been undertaken at Callow Hill. The site has long been known because of the amount of Romano-British building debris and potsherds which lie about on the surface. In 1916 a floor was found, l The excavations were made possible by a grant of £30 from the Research Fund of the Oxford University Archaeological Society. Sincere thanks arc due to His Grace the Duke of Marlborough, Col. Sir Charles Ponsonby 8t., Mr. and Mrs. E. Tomkins, and Mr.

HANBOROUGH GATE Long Hanborough, Oxfordshire
HANBOROUGH GATE Long Hanborough, Oxfordshire Made for life. Join our legacy. Since 1927, Pye Homes has always taken the same pride in the homes and communities we have built in Oxfordshire. Although many things have changed in that time, our values have stayed the same, because so much of what was true then is still true today. That way, we know your home is made for life. We always take the same care in how we build, because that care ensures that your home is built to last. It means that everything about your home is perfectly placed, from the moment we lay the foundations, to the moment we open your door to show you around. By combining the best innovations in design and materials which have stood the test of time, we build in harmony with nature and the local legacy, so that new homes simply belong as part of a community, right from the start. It means always giving the same kind of personal care and integrity that our founder Jack Pye would recognise and be proud to acknowledge with his famous handshake. Those values, and that same regard for legacy, has led us to join with Blenheim and to make our commitment to their Legacy Principles. Together we share a desire for progress alongside a deep-rooted sense of place and enduring connection to our neighbours and local communities. Pye Homes. Made for life. 2 3 “Unlike many new developments, Hanborough Gate has been thoughtfully designed with plenty of green spaces and a feeling of openness which was important to us.

BBPC Meeting Minutes 5 October 2017
BLACK BOURTON PARISH COUNCIL A Meeting of the Black Bourton Parish Council was held on Thursday 5th October 2017 in St. Mary's Church, Black Bourton at 7.30p.m. 1. Present: Cllr. Pete Miles (Chairman) (PM) Cllr. Terry Pope (Vice Chairman) (TP) Cllr. Barry Williams (BW) Lisa Thorn (Clerk) (LT) Cllr. Ted Fenton (TF) Richard Betteridge (RB), Alec Jones (AJ), David Nixon (DN), and one member of the public. 2. Apologies for absence: Cllr. Andrew Lanham (AL), Cllr. Martin Barratt (MB) 3. Declaration of Interest: None. 4. Minutes: The Minutes of the meeting held by the Parish Council on Wednesday 23rd August 2017 were agreed with some minor adjustments. To be signed at next meeting. 5. Public Questions: TF gave an update on W.O.D.C. and O.C.C. matters. 1) The Minerals and Waste Strategy was approved at the last County Council meeting. The mineral policies in the strategy regard the amount of gravel being produced but not the amount of locations. The plans for a gravel extraction site between Bampton and Clanfield were excluded from the strategy and as an aside, it now looks like the plans have been withdrawn. Generally, the amount of gravel required by industry has decreased and is decreasing due to different building techniques etc. Waste policies have been agreed to start charging for non-household waste and large DIY/Garden Waste tipping. The Dix Pits site in Stanton Harcourt has been given a reprieve for the near future. 2) There will be an accelerated house building program for sites that already have planning permission to speed up the process.
