Mid-Sussex District Council v William Charles Boyle: QBD 20 Jul 2001

The authority sought an injunction to restrain a breach of planning control by the defendant. Earlier temporary permissions for single caravans had expired, and enforcement notices issued. The defendant had failed to remove multiple vehicles.
Held: The area was designated one of outstanding natural beauty, and that had to be allowed for by the authority. The defendant having not taken the routes available to him to challenge the refusals of permissions, the injunction was the proper route for the local authority, and the injunction was granted.
