Oh -  and host to:

SKYMARK PACKAGING LTD

When an Appeal was made to the Valuation Agency Office in 2005 for a reduction in business rates.

Skymark Packaging  formerly McGregor Rutland formerly McGregor Plastics had previously rented the Wood Brother Builder land now occupied by Rayden Engineering and had relocated to Manor Industrial Estate in 1990 - 15 years before the Valuation Agency Appeal was made by Rayden Engineering Ltd for a reduction in Skymark Packaging Ltd business rates at the same address as Rayden Engineering.

Though listed as FOUR separate entities, Sportoffer Ltd is The Manor Fitness and Squash Club Ltd alias Manor Bar and Catering Ltd alias Manor Squash and Leisure Club Ltd, the latter having a 99-year lease which includes a restrictive covenant restraining the use as a squash club and for no other purposes.  The landlord EREWASH BOROUGH COUNCIL took legal action in 1999 to enforce this covenant and won: See Sportoffer Limited v Erewash Borough Council (1999) EGLR 213.  In the space of one week in 2008 Dastardly Dick became the proud owner of three associated companies and in view of Erewash Borough Council closing the centrally located Albion Leisure Centre it will be interesting to see if Richard Hayden’s new landlords will enforce this covenant restricting the use to squash, especially as their friend will be in direct competition with the council’s own  Victoria Park Leisure Centre situated NEXT DOOR and the Rutland Sports facility only just around the corner - the very principles they spent council tax-payers money on through legal action to uphold.
