As has been the case for the past two and a half years the employees and clientele of The Primitive Butchers on Lancaster road are using the double yellow lines as their primary means of parking. Knowing that local residents would not dream of blatantly ignoring the laws, they are guaranteed a parking spot right outside. Of course they don’t live on Acacia Road so are not at risk of emergency services being unable to turn into the road were there ever a fire. Enfield council has farmed out parking enforcement to a private company that is only interested in getting as many easy fines as they can.
