Woman hits out after getting fined for using pub car park to collect and drop off grandchildren

A woman claims she was wrongly accused of using a pub's car park for more than eight hours despite only using it twice to drop off her grandchildren.

Sue Bennet, 74, says she appealed the £60 fine on three separate occasions, but they were all rejected. Because of this, she feared she would be taken to court, although the fine will now reportedly be "cancelled".

She had parked her car at The Tollemache Arms in Alpraham, Cheshire, at 8.20am on August 15 so she could drop of her two grandchildren with her daughter for the day. Mrs Bennet then left the car park - which she says has a maximum stay of two hours - before returning home approximately 10 minutes later, Cheshire Live reports.
