Derwent Holdings fails in Old Trafford appeal
Derwent Holdings' bid to block Lancashire County Cricket Club's (LCCC) redevelopment of Manchester's Old Trafford cricket ground has been rejected by the Court of Appeal.
The property firm - owner of the White City retail park - brought the action despite a High Court ruling in March that found in favour of the multi-million pound scheme. Two new grandstands and a refurbished pavilion accommodating 15,000 supporters will be part of the revamp, with the potential to increase capacity to 25,000 with temporary seating.
New pitches, player and media facilities, as well as an extension to the indoor cricket school and public areas, are also mooted as part of a £32m ground investment programme. LCCC chief executive Jim Cumbes said: "We were confident of winning and we are happy we have now seen the end of a protracted legal process which has been draining the club financially."
