Park Hall car boot shuts permanently but operators confirm new site being sought '5 minutes away'
A popular Car Boot sale has shut permanently, its organisers have confirmed.
Park Hall car boot in Charnock Richard has ceased operating following an alleged dispute between the organisers and landowner.
The car boot has been running for five years and was normally open on Wednesdays and Sundays.
Vicki Smith - who ran the car boot with her partner Mick - announced its permanent closure on Facebook at the weekend, adding they are seeking to relocate to a new site in the area.
She said: “As you are aware PARK HALL CAR BOOT IS PERMANENTLY CLOSED and will not be reopening by ourselves or anybody else.
“We potentially have secured a new site. It was sad that it came to this as we met many people that we now consider friends.
“As we are planning reopening on a new site which is only five minutes away from Park Hall, we will be running at the same days and times as our previous sales and we would appreciate your support in our new venture.”
