Business drops legal challenge against Tottenham Hotspur's stadium plans

A local business accepts defeat in its legal case trying to prevent Tottenham Hotspur from going ahead with their £400m stadium redevelopment.

Tottenham Hotspur's plans to go ahead with a stadium development have been boosted further after a local business decided to drop its legal challenge against the construction.

Archway Sheet Metal Works has decided not to appeal against a High Court ruling that allowed Spurs to buy the remainder of the land for their stadium plans.

The business initially challenged a compulsory purchase order, but it was eventually quashed and it has now missed the deadline to lodge an appeal.

Spurs intend to build a 56,000-capacity stadium adjacent to White Hart Lane, which is expected to cost around £400m.
