Caravan site
The Caravan Sites and Control of Development Act 1960 defines a ‘caravan site’ as:
‘...land on which a caravan is stationed for the purposes of human habitation and land which is used in conjunction with land on which a caravan is so stationed’.
This means that land becomes a caravan site as soon as a caravan is brought onto it, regardless of the actual use of the land.
For more information see: Caravan Sites and Control of Development Act 1960.
