Regina (SDR) v Bristol City Council: Admn 2 Apr 2012

Land was proposed to be developed as a football stadium. Local opponents said that the land had been used as for recreational purpose by locals for many years and sought its registration as a village green. The inspector agreed, but the council proposed registration of part only, leaving sufficient space for the stadium. Judicial review was now sought of that decision. An original objector stood aside and application was made for substitution by another (there had been threats and intimidation against objectors).
