And this on a prime site leading directly from Sandy Bay and Church Point caravan parks.

What does Northumberland County Council think it is doing?

Which ill-advised official sanctioned the erection of advertising hoardings that can only serve to combat one local community against another?

I am all for free enterprise, but allowing other districts entry at the back door is, in effect, tantamount to giving away our family silver.

These two Newbiggin caravan parks are crucial to the town's economy.

Caravanners are a permanent feature during most of the summer months and Bank Holiday weekends, spending a lot of their holiday cash in Newbiggin's shops, cafes and pubs.

This money is a vital factor in the town's economy.

Many visitors in their mobile homes spill over into nearby Woodhorn Museum, providing another source of much-needed revenue.

Are we to have a dog-eat-dog culture where only the strongest can survive?
