Tandridge District Council has won High Court orders to stop unlawful works on land at Chelsham, Shipley Bridge and Horne. 

The judges ruled all three developments are unauthorised and must stop.  The courts also awarded costs to the Council. 

At the Chelsham site, the judge has ordered that the land must be returned to agricultural use, hedging replanted, and gates and fencing removed.  The Council’s Enforcement Team will make sure the courts’ orders are followed and the sites are vacated within the legal deadlines. 

The Council is currently pursuing 12 injunctions to protect Green Belt land and uphold planning law.
