Does anyone know why the position of the pitch peg has been changed?  (Is it on all sites?) I don’t really want to look out onto my car from my awning and would much prefer it was behind my caravan with the caravan in the middle of the pitch.  It also means the grassed area to the side of the pitch remains unused or a s that the intention?

My daughter recently stayed on a Haven static site and from her account, the vans were substantially less than 6m apart. Given that this is a national chain, I am somewhat surprised. Are statics subject to different rules or is CAMC out of date?

No, the local authority regs that I have read state 5 metre separation for aluminium clad units and 6m if mixed

Fire engines don’t park between burning things, they park away and use a hose

Well done, that’s in reference to fire spread, not fire engine parking.

 

now, about that picture I posted earlier

Station Managers should be familiar with any access problems and advise the site owner accordingly.


Emergency vehicles should have access to within 90 metres of any unit.

The super fuzzy one that isn’t indicative of anything HtH it looks like a spooks(MI5) offering. What you post knowing it’s source & content is no help to others, it needs content & explanation even scale. My offering was easy to understand, self explanatory & has all the context you need👍🏻

Looks like a zoom in of wardens compounds from Google. I see two possibly occupied units. As you appear to have produced the image which site is it?

 Afternoon

Don't see an issue with that photo. It's obviously a staff compound. Fire regs state that facing walls of vans should have 6 meter spacing, the two outfits in the photo don't have facing walls.

So easy then, park sideways across the pitch,  no 6m spacing required, no pegs…. Job jobbed!
