A PLAN to build two homes in Winchester has been refused.

The scheme to build the two-bedroom dwellings adjacent to Fleming Road in Weeke was turned down by planning officers at Winchester City Council because it is "out of character" to the area and is against planning policies.

The application by Ms P Dickens was met with an objection by the City of Winchester Trust who said the homes would be out of symmetry with the existing homes, while three residents objected to the scheme saying that it could cause road safety problems.
