Town owner Marcus Evans is the joint-174th richest person in the UK with his wealth having remained at £800 million, according to the 2019 Sunday Times Rich List.
Last year, £800 million put Evans 167th in the annual Rich List, which is based on "identifiable wealth"; land, property, publicly-quoted shares and other assets, but not bank accounts to which the compilers don’t have access.
According to The Sunday Times: "The value of Evans’s London property portfolio has taken a hit but his international interests have benefited from the strength of the US economy, leading us to pin his fortune.”
Town sources have previously dismissed Rich List estimates of Evans’s wealth as highly speculative.
