Witney architect Anthony Pettorino was erased from the register in January 2020 over ‘unacceptable conduct’. Allegations were made against Mr Pettorino relating to a renovation and extension at a property in Oxford. Now though, his appeal against building a two-bedroom house in the rear garden of an address in Park Street, Woodstock has been dismissed by the Planning Inspectorate. A planning inspector visited the site on February 9, with the decision made to dismiss the appeal later in the month. The main issues listed by the inspector were: the effect of the proposal on the significance of the Grade II listed building; the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbours, with particular regard to daylight, outlook and privacy, and whether the proposed parking was adequate.
