A RUGBY club wants retrospective planning permission for its weekly car boot sales.

Droitwich Rugby Club has been holding the boot sales for more than 12 months at its Glyn Mitchell Memorial Ground in Hanbury Road.

It has now applied for planning permission to Wychavon District Council.

The events take place on Saturday mornings between 9am and 1pm, and cater for up to 200 cars.

The club says marshalls are provided on the car park, who also pick up any litter left by the public, leaving the site as clean after the event as it was before.
