Retirement homes plan for service station site

Part of the Thame Service Station site

A planning application for 20 retirement homes to build on what is currently Thame Service Station, at 67-68 Park Street, has been recommended for approval by Thame Town Council.

However, the council’s approval was subject to the following conditions:

a) Satisfactory assurance regarding the viability of affordable housing.
b) Satisfactory assurance that the existing business will relocate to a new site in Thame, as the loss of employment land with no firm assurance that the business would remain in the Town was a concern.
