Overview
- Waverley Borough Council secured an interim High Court injunction Friday that stops any more work at the Alfold field.
- The site, turned from horse pasture into a fenced, 17‑plot compound over the Easter weekend, now holds static homes, touring caravans, new roadways and utilities.
- Temporary stop notices served April 2 and 3 were ignored, and Surrey Police, after visiting with council officers, said they found no crimes and classed the dispute as a planning issue.
- Occupiers say they bought the land, but the planning application for permanent use is not valid yet, according to the council.
- Residents report sleepless nights from lights, generators and late construction, and they are preparing for the April 21 hearing as they worry about fresh occupations over the May bank holiday.
