AN investigation has been launched into claims that the Townlands Hospital redevelopment is in breach of planning rules. It’s believed that a member of the public has complained that the new three-story building is taller than the height agreed when planning permission was granted for the new £16 million “health campus” off York Road, Henley.

Health chiefs have been urged to install 18 beds at the new Townlands Hospital in Henley. Campaigners made speeches at a meeting of the board of the Oxfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group in Banbury yesterday (Thursday), urging it to revert to the original plans. The group wants five beds in the neighbouring care home.
