AN UNAUTHORISED car park which has been operating without permission has been ordered to close.
Barnsley Council refused retrospective planning consent for the car park, off Old Mill Lane, close to Barnsley town centre, because of safety concerns relating to restricted sight lines for motorists leaving the site.
The car park had space to accommodate up to 48 vehicles.
Enforcement action will now be taken to ensure the business ceases.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
