    Agenda Item 5 East Area Planning Committee Application number: 19/03223/FUL Decision due by 4th February 2020 Extension of time 27th February 2020 Proposal Demolition of existing dwellinghouse and garage/annex. Erection of 3 x 5-bed dwellinghouses (Use Class C3). Creation of new access, modification of existing access, landscaping works and provision of bin and cycle storage.(Amended plans) Site address 1 Pullens Lane, Oxford, OX3 0BX, – see Appendix 1 for site plan Ward Headington Hill And Northway Ward Case officer Clare Gray Agent: Mr Alex Applicant: Grange Mill Cresswell Developments Ltd Reason at Committee Site measures over 0.25ha 1. RECOMMENDATION 1.1. East Area Planning Committee is recommended to REFUSE the application for the following reasons: 1) The proposed development by reason of its siting, massing, form, layout and external appearance, would cumulatively dominate and overwhelm this greenfield site such that it would result in an incongruous and inappropriate form of development, that would fail to preserve, and would erode, the quiet, verdant and rural character of Pullens Lane and the Headington Hill Conservation Area. Further, the loss of trees and important soft landscape features along with inadequate landscape mitigation proposed would cause harm to the visual amenity of Pullens Lane. This, coupled with the scale, form and layout, would cause harm to the wooded hillside that forms the green backdrop to Oxford and would be harmful to views out of the city, and to the special character and appearance of the Central Conservation Area. The proposed development would result in a harmful impact on the setting of the listed building Headington Hill Hall and would fail to preserve the character or appearance of that area or its setting.

  • Clifton Close Represents a Meeting of Rural Grace with Sleek Urban Living to Offer the Very Best of Town and Country Living
    An exclusive collection of 1 & 2 bedroom apartments and 3 & 4 bedroom houses. Contemporary living within easy reach of Bicester town centre and the idyllic Oxfordshire countryside beyond. Taking inspiration from Oxfordshire's county flower, the snake's head fritillary, with its beautiful natural form and chequered pattern, Clifton Close represents a meeting of rural grace with sleek urban living to offer the very best of town and country living. CLIFTON CLOSE, BICESTER / 1 INTRODUCTION Clifton Close is set within a wonderful location. This is town and country living at its most enjoyable. 2 / CLIFTON CLOSE, BICESTER CLIFTON CLOSE, BICESTER / 3 INTRODUCTION Sympathetic design and landscaped open spaces create an attractive setting. Computer generated image is indicative only. HOUSE NUMBERS 19-11 4 / CLIFTON CLOSE, BICESTER CLIFTON CLOSE, BICESTER / 5 LOCAL AREA 2.2. An ideal place to entertain children and adults alike. Appreciate the beauty of the surrounding Oxfordshire countryside with its many walking and cycling opportunities. The dramatic colours of Oxfordshire’s county flower, the snake’s head fritillary, are a feature of local fields in springtime. 3. Look hard and you might also find them just down the road from Clifton Close in Garth Park, where events like either the Teddy Bear's Picnic or a beer festival make it the ideal place to entertain children and adults alike. There are plenty of other tree-lined rambles within a short drive, for instance the ancient Stoke Wood and the butterfly filled Whitecross Green Wood. You can also explore the Bure Park Nature Reserve, with its 25 acres of trails through woodlands and meadows or Wychwood Forest where large herds of fallow deer roam free.

  • Statement of Community Involvement
    Statement of Community Involvement Communications Management April 2021 STATEMENT OF COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT FOR CLIVE BOOTH STUDENT VILLAGE, OXFORD BROOKES UNIVERSITY April 2021 1: PURPOSE This document represents a formal ‘Statement of Community Involvement’ (SCI) that provides evidence of how Oxford Brookes University has proactively and extensively engaged with the local community to encourage and to respond to their views, comments and ideas in relation to the latest proposals for the University’s Clive Booth Student Village (CBSV), at John Garne Way, in the Headington Hill and Northway ward of Oxford. This document supports a full planning application submitted to Oxford City Council for the following: Demolition of twelve buildings (including main accommodation Blocks C, F, G, H, J, K, L and M) and erection of twelve buildings to provide student accommodation, with ancillary communal and social facilities and associated administrative building (Class C2). Erection of children’s nursery (Class E). Alterations to car parking, installation of cycle parking structures and associated landscaping works, including reorganisation of existing footpaths and cycle ways, drainage features and ancillary development. Installation of a waste compactor unit and alterations to an existing road to enable access. 2: HISTORY It should be noted that Oxford Brookes University was previously unsuccessful in its submission to Oxford City Council for planning permission for a quite different set of proposals to redevelop the CBSV, which were considered by the East Area Planning Committee on Wednesday 5 June 2019. During our more recent community engagement programme (to support the newly evolved and much- changed application) we specifically held in mind the reasons for the Committee’s rejection in 2019 - including: the impact on the Headington Hill Conservation Area and on the neighbouring allotments, the loss of trees, and the perception that the case for public benefit had not been sufficiently proven at that time.

  • Timeline of Marston Below Is a Brief Timeline of the History of Marston Courtesy of Stephanie Jenkins of Headington.Org.Uk
    Timeline of Marston Below is a brief timeline of the history of Marston courtesy of Stephanie Jenkins of headington.org.uk. There have been two Palaeolithic finds in Marston, but the Romans do not appear to have had a BC settlement there AD 1086 Domesday Book: Marston (then a hamlet of Headington) was too small to be mentioned Until this time, all the low ground of Marston is believed to have been under water. Old Marston village AD 1100 was now an island in the Cherwell. It had its own chapel, which was dependent on Headington. It was part of the Royal Manor at Headington (which also owned Binsey and Osney). First written occurrence of the name of Marston. Its chapel is referred to as a church for the first time, and by the end of the twelfth century it was dedicated to St Nicholas. Henry I gave the chapel of Marston to the canons of St. Frideswide’s. AD 1122 The chancel arch and seven arches of the nave survive which suggests a considerable community cultivating surrounding fields – workable by ditching and draining. The tenant had rights of commoning cattle and cutting furze, fern and dead wood. In this year the population of Marston consisted of the Vicar, two freeholders (the miller and a man appearing to live at Court Place) and 46 unfree tenants. First mention of a Marston ferry. Hugh de Molendino held a mill at Marston. (Hundred Rolls). There was a mill at the end of Mill Lane near Sescut Farm which would disappear and re-appear in the AD 1279 records up to the 1400s.
