Objection over storage area for 200plus London taxis A company's planning application to be allowed to continue to store more than 200 London taxis on Green Belt land in Thornwood has been unanimously opposed by the parish council. North Weald Bassett Parish Council's planning committee has expressed strong views over the use of the land at Weald Park Farm, off Duck Lane, where the vehicles have already been parked for a year. Documents submitted by GB Taxi Services to Epping Forest District Council as part of its retrospective planning application state that the company has some 212 vehicles on the land. It adds that the taxis are not currently needed because of the downturn in the taxi trade during the COVID-19 pandemic. The company is seeking temporary permission, for one year from Spring 2021 to Spring 2022, to store the vehicles on the land. However the parish council was told the vehicles have been on the site since April last year. Councillor Terry Blanks said: "This is a totally inappropriate use of a farm, it's more like a field than a farm.

"There are 200 older taxis parked there already. They started off (parked) relatively neat; some are clearly being repaired. This is not a place to park old cabs." He added North Weald Airfield would be a "far more appropriate" place to park the vehicles than a farm. Councillor Sheila Jackman called on the parish council to lodge a "strong" objection". She said: "They (the taxis) have already been there for a year. They've been breaking the regulations. "If it was to be given permission it's effectively giving permission for two years and I really don't think that's on." Councillor Anne Grigg said: "It's simply inappropriate development in the Green Belt."
