Re: Caravans

I am resurrecting this thread because caravan owners might decide to air their views about this-

This morning my neighbour has parked his caravan on the street.
He removed it from a summer site last Autumn and it was parked on his daughters drive until today. He told neighbours that that arrangement could only be temporary because his daughter's house was for sale.
So we expect it to be parked on the street at least until Easter, when he will, hopefully, clear off to a site for the summer.

It is an unwashed mucky eyesore.
It is parked 4ft behind my car, facing downhill, and he has not put chocks on the wheels.

I have looked at regulations governing street parking and found this-
Is it illegal to park a caravan in a quite cul de sac when it isn't causing an obstruction? — The Roadside Lawyer

This street is a quiet culdesac, with a large 'turn around' parking area at the end, but is narrow by most street standards. I expect that the coach which comes past every Wednesday for the school baths run may find it obstructive. (My wing mirror was knocked out of line, but not damaged) recently.
We often have tractors with trailers passing on their way to the allotments, and grass cutting equipment visiting the field.

I would like members who own caravans to express their opinions and relate their experiences of situations similar.
