Tottenham training ground approved despite protest
Tottenham Hotspur has been given the go-ahead to build a new training ground despite campaigners arguing it would destroy the park. The football club plans to fence off a section of the park and build a new women's academy, with 11 pitches and a new clubhouse.
There were 296 objections sent to Enfield Council, with many comments about the loss of green space and the impact on wildlife in the area. Objectors to the plans included a group called The Friends of Whitewebbs Park, who have been protesting to save the park.
ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio London's Alice Hopkin's spoke to Gaynor Evans and Sean Wilkinson from the group to find out more.
