Thread Name: 51st Sidmouth festival
Subject: RE: 51st Sidmouth festival
Just been looking at Steve form Sidmouths Web site!

Two questions - I have a sinister brain!

1)Somewhere in the depths of my brain it registers that there is a covenant on field 1 of the camp site relating to its use by the festival. If it is not used next year will this be broken (if it exists) and will some developer manage to build houses on it at a substantial profit?

Steve, our man on the spot, would be the man to check this out.

2) Who actually 'owns' the title 'Sidmouth International Festival', along with all the goodwill etc. that goes with it - 50 years of trading during the first week in August, now documented in a book, would stand up in court very easily if any claim were (quite rightly) put in.

As I said above I have a sinister brain and sadly must remain anonymous at this time!
