Is it legal to park up your campervan on any street and live from it?


Recommended Posts

Someone has recently parked up their rather large Merc camper-van

and apparently decided to make an end of Rodwell Road their new home.

(I believe they were previously parked up on Jennings Road?)


Of course i'm not overly happy about this for several reasons like engine running

most evenings outside the house (fumes & noise) I'm also wandering where they deposit

their waste (both sorts!)They're also taking up quite a bit of road space in that

they also have a car. bla bla grumpy old man! but hey.


So, I'm just curious as to the legalities of this? that's all really.

Kind on nervous that this may turn into some long term settling!

technically, yes.


but have a word with them & raise your concerns- Im sure they would be amenable & wouldnt want to draw attention to their situation for obvious reasons.


getting the filth involved is probabaly a bit OTT IMH( liberal)O position - Im sure its not a permanent situation for them

What 'bout now said.


P.S. I can't help it but this reminds me of Alan Bennett's 'The Lady in the Van'. Hope it all gets sorted out soon for everyone concerned.

Seems to just be one person ranting. I can understand people not being too chuffed, but the argument of "we paid lots of money to live here" is not going to win you many friends.

Very kind, Senor Chevalier, you're a gentleman. I'm just observing the madness the other thread has taken on & the abuse I'm getting. Not cropping up again there, or else they'll be at me! Have a lovely afternoon everyone. Love & peace to you all X
You are getting abuse because your argument is based on assumptions you have made about the occupants of the van and then you are indignant to anyone that has a different view. Take the advice of those that have suggested it and go and have a chat with the van people. You might be pleasantly suprised by what you find out, sympathetic even.

    • It looks as though there will be 10 of us!  We are going to Love Dulwich again for a lunch and will checkout their 'normal' menu - from what we remember from the last 2 times we went = there was plenty to satisfy every one and they were happy to take party bookings.- Hubby and I have worked out that if all our daughters, grandchildren and great grandchildren were  to come - there would be 20 of us!! As it is - the Essex  family branch live too far away to come over for an evening - so we will meet up in Essex at a later date.
    • Tend to use 37 or 42 bus as rarely been able to find parking space. Sods Law - there is sometimes a few spaces when I bus it.!
    • Just to warn anyone thinking of employing or engaging Chris and Anna Richmond, that nothing has changed.  The accounts above from others are all too familiar.  A job that we were told would take between 6-8 months is now entering its 23rd month.  They have taken enormous amounts of money from us, finished nothing, and the quality of the work that they have delivered is poor to substandard.  They take no responsibility themselves - there are endless excuses and everything is someone else's fault.  They do not care about the impact that their actions have on anyone else.   They are, at best, chaotic. They have not delivered as the designers or project managers that they claim to be. They are rarely on site to monitor the progress or quality of the job that is being delivered and they and manage their largely non-English speaking workforce by WhatsApp and Google translate.  There has been little evidence that they employ the skilled tradespeople needed to lay tiles, install bathrooms and kitchens, decorate and complete to the standard that we have paid for.  I cannot stress enough, that if you are currently in discussion with Anna and Chris Richmond about a future job or have paid them money up front for a job that they have slipped in delivering, to quit while you are ahead.  Things won't get better.
    • Hi All, I’d like to recommend Aaron Manser, who several others on this forum have also used. Aaron is an excellent plasterer, and has just finished a complicated piece of plastering work for me, including a large expanse of ceiling. His work has been of the highest quality, his attention to detail is exceptional, and he’s also very quick, and tidy too. As an added bonus he has a lovely singing voice. Happy to provide any photos of the work he has done. This is the third time over the past few years I’ve had Aaron back. Aaron Manser - 07773 410661 Regards, Damien
