ON July 17, leading members of the Caucus residents' association, along with Liberal Party leader Cllr Steve Radford, lodged a formal application at both Liverpool magistrates court,and city council to have Clubmoor Rec awarded village green status.
The city council will now be obliged to publish a notice, which includes a statutory period for objections.
Pat and Georgina have been determined to stop the ongoing encroachment of the recreation ground, which has occurred under both Labour and Lib Dem councils.
Pat has lived in the area for 60 years and is very nervous of the way the council has abandoned Stanley Park.
By obtaining village green status, residents can deter further encroachment on to this beautiful green open space from developers and land grabbers.
