SODC Loses Thames Farm Decision – Development Approved

The Court of Appeal has refused SODC’s request to appeal the decision of the High Court, which supported the decision of the Inquiry Inspector to grant permission for the development at Thames Farm.

SODC was not able to challenge the position cited by the applicant and the developer, which the Inspector concurred with, namely that there was ‘…. a chronic and dire shortage of housing land’ within the District.

This represents the final step in these proceedings, which are now concluded. There is no further right of appeal in these circumstances.
