Havering Council could object to the plans on the basis of a 775 year-old law involving sheep.
to Parliament last November for approval to move Smithfield and Billingsgate markets to Dagenham Dock.
While the bill was in its petitioning period, Havering Council submitted an objection based on the Royal Charter that founded Romford Market over 700 years ago.King Henry III granted the Royal Charter that could be used to oppose the plans The Charter stipulates that no other market can be set up within the distance a sheep can walk in a day from Romford Market - approximately 6.66 miles.
Havering Council does not always enforce the Charter on other markets in the area - but it is concerned about how the relocation of the City markets will affect local trade, especially if they are allowed to sell at retail to individuals.
