We have a guy opposite us who has put up a sign saying that he will clamp any cars parking in a residential parking area as he deems it private property and to make matters worse he wants to charge a release fee of £50. :sad:
Is this legal?

If he owns the land then yes.

If he doesn't then no.

To a point this is correct, however the sign has to be written correct and positioned correctly too, find out more about this at www.5ive-o.co.uk this site might come in handy to you :D
