‘Gypsy billionaire’ Alfie Best has claimed a ruling on his Penwortham caravan site as 'a great victory'.
As reported in yesterday’s Post, a planning inspector has ruled that Mr Best’s company Wyldecrest Parks must reinstate an excavated embankment, after agreeing with South Ribble Borough Council’s stance that it had been done without permission, and had caused harm to a protected woodland area.
A revised plan of the site has been sent to the council’s licensing departnment, and Mr Best believes his site licence now allows the engineering work under permitted development. He said: “The engineering works were not lawful when they were done, because we didn't have planning permission, but we do now. “If the council wanted to make us pull it all up, we would. Then we’d re-lay it. “This is not a loss, it's a victory, and I'm really excited.
