Introduction and Site
Planning Schedule Date: 10/08/2004
An outline application for the erection of one dwelling on a paddock fronting Chapel Lane was
refused by Committee on 13th August 2002. The reason for refusal was as follows: -
The proposed development would be likely to result in an intensification in vehicular use of the
sub-standard site access together with the sub-standard road serving the site which is unsuitable
to cater for the proposed development by reason of its restricted width/poor alignment/ lack of
footways/lack of passing bays and sub-standard junction with Tetbury Street to the detriment of
highway safety and contrary to Policy G5 of the Stroud District Local Plan Revised Deposit
Version (as amended June 2001).
An appeal was lodged against this refusal and allowed on 10th September 2003. In granting
permission, the Inspector imposed a number of conditions, one of which states:-
Development shall not begin until details of improvements to visibility at the junction of Chapel
Lane and Tetbury Street have been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning
Authority. The dwelling hereby permitted shall not be occupied until the scheme has been
implemented in accordance with the approved details.
