If the caravan has been on the land for 10 years beyond any condition (i.e. Expiry of the planning) then it might be beyond enforcement by the local authority. 

However that doesn't guarantee planning unfortunately.

Thanks Ian . Can the 10 year rule apply and lawful development certificate apply dont no much about it . Thanks phil

I would only apply if you need to. 

You will continue to build up evidence in the meantime. 

However if you would like us to assist you with the certificate you are welcome to fill in the form here
