Judicial proceedings to challenge the Compulsory Purchase Order of our premises.
Whilst we were disappointed and surprised by the judgment of Sir Ian Dove in dismissing our claim to the compulsory purchase order made by Haringey Council to support the stadium scheme of Tottenham Hotspur Football Club, we have decided not to appeal against his decision. The Judge’s finding on our key ground of challenge turned on his conclusion that the Club had not sufficiently settled its intention to make the changes to the CPO scheme that it had been confidentially discussing with key planning and transport authorities over a period of 12 months or more.
We were very pleased that the Judge expressly acknowledged that we were perfectly entitled to pursue these matters and that the proceedings were a perfectly proper exercise of our rights. He also refused to make a costs order against us in respect of the Council’s and the Club’s costs in these proceedings.
We have throughout sought to act reasonably and properly in the defence of our rights. The Judge’s acknowledgment is a clear recognition that our actions were legitimate and proper.
We have always been willing to negotiate with the club on a reasonable and proper basis. Our efforts towards that end have been unsuccessful so far, but we will continue to try to achieve a proper settlement by agreement if that is possible.
Our other overriding objective is also to arrange for the relocation of our family business as quickly as possible and to preserve the jobs of those we employ. Our relocation will presumably also enable the Club to carry out their stadium development and enable them to achieve their commercial objectives.

The next step will be to vest the land in Haringey Council's ownership and to agree the compensation amount payable to Archway.
We shall also continue to seek to reach an agreement with Archway by private treaty.
We shall provide a further update as matters progress.
As someone said in here, more business savvy than me, what a great opportunity lost to create a future business relationship.
"Yes, we'll sell our land for your development if we can be your supplier of sheet metal for your kitchens".
Repeatedly shot themselves in the foot. Idiots.
Lads I've always been embarrassed to ask but....why were Archway so determined to be the one business to stop us? Why were they so obstinate?
