EH-H6: Thatcher’s Hotel site

Planning permission will be granted for the development of 0.74 hectares of land at the Thatcher’s Hotel site subject to the following criteria:

  • The provision of mainly smaller dwellings with no more than 3 bedrooms (market and affordable), to be located within the existing settlement area; and
  • The original front building, which is of Chown design, should be retained if at all possible and converted into apartments or other housing; and
  • Mature tree screening from the A246 should be maintained; and
  • The Lovelace boundary wall on the southern and western boundaries adjacent to the A246 is a distinctive landmark feature and should be maintained; and
  • A publicly-accessible footpath is encouraged to be provided allowing passage through or around the site from beside the petrol filling station to the pavement on the A246 Guildford Road close to the entrance of The Warren; and
  • The loss of the hotel facility must be appropriately justified in the planning application in accordance with the applicable adopted local plan policy.
