Why was £10,000 of local taxpayers money given to a private resident / landowner on the premise of a carpark serving the community locally and at large.
Did they not have to agree some sort of local commitment to justify receiving this money.
If not. It’s scandlous and they should be made to pay back all the public funded money.

I was surprised just how expensive it is.
We now go to Hartley Farm Tearoom which offers its customers free parking and is in Winsley.
