A wedding venue still has at least one of its marquees standing - days after the council ordered their removal.
Footage seen by the ECHO has shown the large Walled Garden marquee at the Thornton Manor Wedding estate still standing days after Wirral Council's enforcement order had passed. The footage, taken on Monday, July 25, comes days after the removal date of Thursday, July 21.
A 10-year dispute between Wirral Council and the venue's owners, Thornton Holdings, regarding the building of the marquees on the estate's green space ended in January this year. On January 20, the government's Planning Inspectorate dismissed a new appeal from Thornton Holdings and said the marquees must be removed within six months of the decision date.
