Taking photos on private land is again neither illegal or unlawful and the police have no jurisdiction to act in private matters unless common law is broken. A private land owner can however bring about a private prosecution, but this would cost many thousands of pounds. There is a difference though between public highway (or rather, public right of way), and private land that is open to the public. You could photo buses at Prescot bus station, as it is on a public road. You could photo buses at Leigh or Wigan bus stations, as long as you did it from the footpath opposite the end of the bus stands as they are off the bus station land. |
