With apologies to Marks and Spencer....
Deliberately run down by it's owners, looters and vandals allowed free rein.No lighting or security ,vans set on fire,windows smashed.No supervision,no idea who should,or shouldn't be on it . This was no ordinary caravan site,this was Waveney District councils caravan site.
Early summer 2006 and three views of the council run (managed seems the wrong word looking at this mess) caravan site 50 yards from Lowestofs sea side.Imagine the feelings of the owners of vans like the bottom one who see their holiday home trashed and looted over and over again.Whilst Waveney District Council fritters away millions on its "Sunrise scheme" nonsense,and rushes headlong to waste £50 million or more on a new 'campus',the huge touring site called North Denes next door (also council 'run') is barricaded with concrete blocks and is empty with all the shower blocks and toilets boarded up smashed to bits inside by vandals because Waveney Dismal Council say they can't afford to run the sites properly.Altogether now.."Oh! we do like to be beside the sea side".

Sorry mate,you've lost the fight,and your caravan,holidays just won't be the same for you or any of the other holidaymakers anymore.

It beggars belief that someone was actually in charge of this mess.

Vandalised and ruined as WDC dither,the toilet block.
While Nero fiddled Rome burnt.While WDC dither,the vandals have a smashing time in the toilet blocks and showers.
Peoples caravans vandalised and broken into.
.
Carry on Camping. Vandals stripped out most of the caravans,what a shameful reward for those who'd paid site rent for years to the council who did nothing to stop this destruction.

Latest news.
Summer 2009,the site is still empty and derelict .The BBC incorrectly reported the council were to leave it as an open space.The council apparently decided years ago they wanted this site cleared,I do hope no-one suggests that ignoring the vandals efforts helped this happen.
The dried grass on the site has been set on fire a couple of times and gypsy caravans have moved on a time or two ,the shower blocks and toilets have been ruined by vandals.The council said they have sold this site to a developer,"Open by the summer" they said. Sadly eighteen months later,no money having ever changed hands the deal was off.
Apparently the sale fell through because of the public footpaths that crisscross the site.Rumours abound that the developer wasn't told about these and when they became aware they backed out of the deal.
