The enforcement team at Bath & North East Somerset Council is investigating after a raised seating platform was recently constructed outside Treetop Café in Royal Victoria Park without consent.

The unauthorised development outside the café near the Royal Crescent

There are steps up to the seating area, where there are six tables and chairs as well as bench seating.

The wooden structure includes planters and also has fake grass.

Excel runs the café along with the tennis courts, bowling green, mini golf and events space in the park.

This week, Bath & North East Somerset Council told us: “The planning enforcement team is aware of this matter and is actively investigating.”

The Bath Echo has contacted the café to ask if it wishes to comment.
