MR JUSTICE SULLIVAN: Introduction 2. There are two sets of proceedings before the court. The first is an application for judicial review in which the claimant seeks a quashing order in respect of a decision of the defendant's Public Rights of Way and Commons Registration Committee on 8 September 2002 to amend the Register of Town and Village Greens maintained by it under the Commons Registration Act 1965 ("the Act") by adding land at Magpie Bottom, Tabernacle Road, Hanham, Bristol ("the site") as a village green; a declaration that the site is not a village green; and a mandatory order requiring the defendant to remove it from the register. 3. The second is a claim under CPR Part 8 for an order under section 14 of the Act that the register be amended by the removal of the site and for a declaration that the site is not a village green. Claims under section 14 are assigned to the Chancery Division. 4. On 1 August 2003, Master Bowles ordered, by consent, that there should be a trial of preliminary issues in the section 14 claim, and that the trial of those issues should be conducted together with the claim for judicial review. The agreed preliminary issues in the section 14 claim correspond with the issues now raised in the application for judicial review. Factual Background and Statutory Framework 5. The claimant is a property development company. It acquired the land comprising the majority of the site from the defendant by transfer dated 23 February 2001 pursuant to an option agreement entered into in November 1996. The claimant exercised its option to purchase the land in November 1997. It was registered as the proprietor of the land with effect from 16 March 2001. On 6 March 2000 the claimant applied to the defendant for planning permission to erect eight houses and an access road on the land. The defendant failed to determine the application within the prescribed period, so the claimant appealed to the Secretary of State for the Environment. The Secretary of State's inspector, who described the land as "part of a former nursery . an unkempt and overgrown area of mature shrubs, self-seeded trees, brambles and tall grass, which is crossed by a network of informal paths", dismissed the appeal in a decision letter dated 6 December 2000. 6. Local residents, including Mr Bye of the Magpie Bottom Action Group, appeared at the hearing before the inspector in October 2000 and opposed the proposed development. On 5 July 2000, Mr Bye, together with three other local residents who appeared at the hearing before the inspector, had applied for registration of the land, together with some adjoining land, as a town or village green. 7. The Act provided for the registration of all existing town or village greens in England and Wales. Land capable of registration as such which was not registered by the end of a prescribed period (31 July 1970) was not deemed to be a green (Section 1(2)). After 31 July 1970 registration cannot be effected under section 1, but can be effected by the making of an amendment to the register under section 13 "where . any land becomes . a town or village green". The procedure is prescribed by the Commons Registration (New Land) Regulations 1969 ("the Regulations"). Application must be made to the registration authority (in this case the defendant) on the prescribed form. The registration authority must notify likely objectors, including owners, tenants and occupiers of the land in question, and publish and display notices of the application in the area, inviting objections by a specified date. Having sent copies of any objections to the applicant and given him an opportunity to respond, the registration authority then decides whether to accept the application and make the necessary registration, or to reject it. 8. As enacted, section 22(1) of the Act contained a three-part definition of town or village green as follows. Land: "[a] Which has been allotted by or under any Act for the exercise or recreation of the inhabitants of any locality or [b] on which the inhabitants of any locality have a customary right to indulge in lawful sports and pastimes or [c] on which the inhabitants of any locality have indulged in such sports and pastimes as of right for not less than 20 years." 9. I have added letters [a]-[c] for convenience since the three classes are usually referred to as class [a], [b] or [c] village greens. The definition of a class (c) green was altered with effect from 30 January 2001 by sections 98 and 103(2) of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000 ("the 2000 Act"). Class (c) greens are now defined as land: "Which falls within sub-section (1A) of this section. "(1A) Land falls within this sub-section if it is land on which for not less than 20 years a significant number of the inhabitants of any locality, or of any neighbourhood within a locality have indulged in lawful sports and pastimes as of right, and either -- "(a) continue to do so, or "(b) have ceased to do so for not more than such period as may be prescribed, or determined in accordance with prescribed provisions." No period has been prescribed for the purposes of paragraph (b) in sub-section (1A). 10. The application dated 5 July 2000 contended that the site had become a class (c) green in "1995 or before". The claimant's solicitors objected to the application in a letter dated 15 December 2000. The letter said, inter alia: "Our clients object to this application on the basis that the applicant has not established, on a balance of probabilities, that the claimed land has been used by local inhabitants for lawful sports and pastimes, as of right, for a continuous period of not less than 20 years for the following reasons: "1. The applicant has not established that there is a relevant 'locality' whose inhabitants have indulged in relevant activities on the application site. No specific neighbourhood, community or housing estate has been defined . "3. The applicant has claimed that various activities have been undertaken on the application site including walking, cycling, playing, exercising, socialising, picking blackberries, picnicking and drawing and painting. Given that the application site had been for some time unkempt and densely overgrown comprising an area of mature shrubs, self-seeded trees, brambles and tall grass, it is unlikely that all of the activities claimed could have been physically undertaken on the application site on a regular basis . "7. The applicant has failed to establish that the claimed activities have been indulged in as of right. The majority of the evidence questionnaires make it clear that the local residents are aware that the local Council own the land. Any use of the application site by the public was with the implied permission of South Gloucestershire Council . "In summary, the evidence presented in support of the application for registration as a village green does not define the relevant locality. Many of the questionnaires do not distinguish between recreational activities and sports undertaken on the land known as Magpie Bottom, which lies outside the application site and is designated a public open space maintained by the Council. Many of the evidence questionnaires referred to the application site as land that is crossed on foot in order to gain access to other recreation areas. The majority of the evidence questionnaires give an indication that local residents all knew that the land was in the ownership of the Council and therefore any such use of the land was with the Council's implied permission." 11. Correspondence between the claimant's solicitors and the defendant continued until April 2001, by which time the definition of class (c) green had been amended by the 2000 Act (see above) and the majority of the land within the site had been transferred by the defendant to the claimant. In a letter dated 18 April 2001, the claimant's solicitors reiterated their earlier objections, referred to correspondence from local residents seeking registration of the site and said, inter alia: "The above correspondence and other material available to the Council regarding our client's planning application demonstrates that the Village Green application has been lodged by a small group of residents who are using the process to maintain their objection to planning permission being granted over the application site. Third party objections to the development of this brown field site were aired fairly, although unsuccessfully, in the planning enquiry process and an application under the Commons Registrations Act 1965 is not an appropriate mechanism to seek to further such objections once they have been dismissed by the planning inspector." 12.

  • Inspector's Report: Stoke Lodge Playing Field
    Original Names Redacted for Publication Purposes APPLICATION BY MR DAVID MAYER TO REGISTER LAND KNOWN AS STOKE LODGE PLAYING FIELD, SHIREHAMPTON ROAD, BRISTOL, AS A NEW TOWN OR VILLAGE GREEN REPORT Preliminary 1. Bristol City Council is the statutory body charged by statute with maintaining the register of village greens. It has asked me to advise it whether land within its area known as Stoke Lodge Playing Field should be registered as a town or village green. I am a barrister in private practice with expertise in the law of town and village greens. In this capacity, I have often advised registration authorities and have often acted on their behalf as an Inspector, holding a public inquiry into an application before reporting and making a recommendation. I have also often advised and acted for applicants who have sought to register land as a town or village green; and for objectors, who have argued that land should not be registered as a town or village green. Procedural history 2. On 7 March 2011, David Mayer on behalf of Save Stoke Lodge Parkland made an application to register land at Stoke Lodge Playing Field/Parkland, Shirehampton Road, Bristol (“the application site”) as a town or village green. Objections to the application were received from Bristol City Council in its capacity as landowner (the First Objector), the University of Bristol (the Second Objector), Rockleaze Rangers Football Club (the Third Objector) and Cotham School (the Fourth Objector). Mr Mayer responded to those objections and subsequently there were further exchanges of representations. In its capacity as registration authority the City Council initially considered that it would be necessary for there to be a non-statutory public inquiry and, on this basis, invited me to hold such an inquiry1.

  • Practical Social Work
    PRACTICAL SOCIAL WORK Series Editor: Jo Campling IBA5Wl Editorial Advisory Board: Robert Adams, Terry Bamford, Charles Barker, Lena Dominelli, Malcolm Payne, Michael Preston-Shoot, Daphne Statham and Jane Tunstill Social work is at an important stage in its development. All professions must be responsive to changing social and economic conditions if they are to meet the needs of those they serve. This series focuses on sound practice and the specific contribution which social workers can make to the well-being of our society. The British Association of Social Workers has always been conscious of its role in setting guidelines for practice and in seeking to raise professional standards. The conception of the Practical Social Work series arose from a survey of BASW members to discover where they, the practitioners in social work, felt there was the most need for new literature. The response was overwhelming and enthusiastic, and the result is a carefully planned, coherent series of books. The emphasis is firmly on practice set in a theoretical framework. The books will inform, stimulate and promote discussion, thus adding to the further development of skills and high professional standards. All the authors are practitioners and teachers of social work representing a wide variety of experience.
