He had absolutely no right or power to do this.
A Plod is judge, jury and executioner - unless you are really sharp and have some good phone numbers in your phone.
He can simply invent a story that you assaulted him...
Presumably Plod won't know one can undelete the files very easily - so long as one has not taken any more pics.

It used to be the start/ end point of one of the heli routes published for Leeds (preferred exit lane for north bound heli trafic from Coney Park, route Pool/ Menwith). So a sort of VRP even if not published on a CAA chart.

As usual, a load of cobblers being talked here, along with a lot of sense ... it's obvious who the locals are !
Watch out for the highly trained killer bees they keep in those radomes ...
There is no restriction on the airspace, the place isn't even acknowledged on CAA charts (other than "aerials" if I remember rightly). It was indeed used informally by LBA ATC as a VRP and zone entry/exit until 9/11 (obviously not when they were stacking up 737s ...
