Discusses the recent case "Thames Water Utilities v Oxford City Council and Oxford United Football Club" which has created uncertainty over the overriding of restrictive covenants under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 s237. If the decision in the case is upheld, it could hinder the devlopment of land backed by local authorities.
