Vulgar or good for trade? Hotel plan splits opinion );
PLANS for a Premier Inn in Henley have divided residents.
They were responding to a planning application for the five-storey building, which would be built on the car park at the station.
The application was submitted to South Oxfordshire District Council, the planning authority, by Blocwork, a partnership between the landowner Network Rail and developer Bloc Group, of London.
Geoff Luckett, chairman of the Henley Society, a conservation group, says the developer has failed to respect the historic character of the adjacent conservation area.
He also says the 115-bedroom hotel would be unneighbourly, particularly to residents living in Wyndale Close, which backs on to the car park.
