    In my opinion it is hopeless to suggest that the decision in M'Douall's Trustees was not soundly based on authority, particularly having regard to Stewart v. Watson which has stood since 1864. Moreover, the decision in M'Douall's Trustees, and that of the First Division in the present case, seem to me sound in principle.

    There are restrictions as to what the owners can do on the sites. In particular they may not live in their caravans as a permanent address and may not stay overnight the 3 months December to February. During those 3 months they can have access to their caravans but not stay. The customers are free (during the permitted times only) to let their caravans for use by others.
