Traffic wardens have issued parking tickets to prop vehicles being used to film Daniel Day-Lewis’ come back film.

The Last of the Mohicans and There Will Be Blood actor’s forthcoming new movie is currently being shot in Handbridge in Chester.

However, filming was interrupted when local traffic wardens began to put parking tickets on the 1980s prop vehicles that were parked on double-yellow lines.

Cllr Matt Carter said the local authority had decided to refuse a full road closure application as it was assessed as being too disruptive for residents.

He added that a separate request for parking technical support vehicles in restricted areas had been granted, but that did not include the prop cars.

Cllr Carter posted a statement from the council on social media that said: ‘Cheshire West is a film-friendly borough and supports where possible all filming in partnership with the national film office.

‘Careful consideration is always given to each request and in this case, not all of the production requests could be permitted as they would have put too much pressure on the busy roads.’
