Would it be illegal to 'enhance' any adverts displayed on an illegal billboard?

It's still waiting for its first corporate adverts to arrive and there is CCTV right next to it.

CCTV is surely easier to remove than the billboard?

Why don't you have a go and report back?

It is you, sir, wot sound like you've done it before

Clearly an off rd motorbike, leathers and a helmet (all in black) would be useful, so you can dip off into the next estate if anyone comes....

Ah ok. I had a quick look at it yesterday.

Is it the billboards themselves that don't have planning permission, or does that only apply once they've got ads on?

It's the monstrous billboard itself. It's been constructed without planning permission on land that almost certainly doesn't belong to them.

Would be interesting to find out who owns the land - could provide another angle on tackling it.

A .22 air rifle would be discreet

Maybe it's a billboard advertising the luxury flats about to be built where the old Texaco was.

That'll be a whizzo idea: walk around Coldharbour Lane - "the most dangerous street in the most dangerous borough of London*" - with an air rifle in my hand!

That's a VERY long story in itself.

If someone had an overlooking flat it would be fine.

Do you think my truck would fit there if I removed the offending billboards?

Imagine, if you will, that some dodgy company has erected a very large billboard outside your house without any planning permission whatsoever.

What would be the legal position on 'enhancing' any adverts subsequently posted up on this illegal billboard?

only if you get caught/daubed in?
