Two campervan stories in UK: filming in Lancashire and crackdown in Keswick
Original source: Lancashire Telegraph

In Brief

Bolton-le-Sands parish council explains caravans and motorhomes on Shore Lane car park are for ITV filming, while Keswick develops a strategy against irresponsible camper van owners causing parking and waste issues.

Filming in Lancashire

Bolton-le-Sands Parish Council has issued a notice about the temporary use of the Shore Lane car park for ITV television production filming. Access to the car park will be restricted during filming, after which the area will be restored to its original state. Although the council did not name the programme, filming of the sixth series of the drama "The Bay" has already begun in Morecambe Bay.

Strategy in Keswick

Keswick authorities in the Lake District are developing a strategy to address parking and sanitation problems caused by camper van and motorhome owners. Vehicles occupy spaces on residential streets and in daytime parking zones, and also create waste disposal issues. The town council is working with Cumberland Council to find sites for dedicated aires and to strengthen enforcement.

1966 motorhome with Mini garage and recording studio

In 1966, British coachbuilder Harold Radford Coachbuilders built the Transcontinental Carabus Mk2 motorhome for steel magnate Philip Lee, based on an AEC Reliance bus. The 11-metre vehicle featured a hydraulic lift for a Mini Cooper S, a recording studio, two toilets, a roof-access lift, and a kitchen with a dishwasher. The project cost £25,000 (over €700,000 in today's money). DVLA records show the motorhome was scrapped decades ago; the Mini's last registration was in 1985.
