I will go back there on Monday and speak to them. The car park is a small area along a parade of different shops. I'm not sure how to find the retail park landowner.Coupon-mad said:Yes, in this case. But FAR FAR more urgent is the complaint to Greggs or the retail park landowner. Easy cancellation!
SOME IDEAS FOR DETERMINING WHO OWNS THE LAND1. Google searches2. If a retail park, check on any signage which lists the on-site outlets3. Ask retailers on the site if there is a managing agent4. Ask retailers on the site to whom do they pay rent5. Contact the local authority and ask who pays the non-domestic/business rate for the car park (some councils have a spreadsheet on their website)6. Contact the local Valuation Office and ask if they know. They often have a website which might provide the information7. Contact The Land Registry and for around £3 they should be able to provide definitive detail8. If you haven't already done so, give us the name of the car park/site/location, we may have seen other cases there.Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

I have checked the signs and I can't see it, I have googled it but had no luck. I sent an email to Greg's and they were less than helpful. I will try the council tomorrow.Umkomaas said:
