In order to determine whether the occupier of a residential caravan has the protection of the Mobile Homes Act 1983, it may be necessary to ascertain whether the land on which it stands is a “protected site” within the meaning of the Caravan Sites Act 1968, which, in turn, speaks in the language of the planning legislation.
A fair idea of how all this is supposed to hang together can be obtained from Berkeley Leisure Group Ltd v Hampton [2001] EWCA Civ 1474; [2001] 42 EG 137 (CS), although, for a more expansive survey, you should take a look at Adams v Watkins [1990] 2 EGLR 185.
