Representation Summary:

The group of travellers (on land opposite) have now been evicted.
Unfortunately they have left a lot of their rubbish behind and the path looks a right mess.
For so few people to cause such an eyesore is quite unbelievable.Any sympathy that local residents may have had for the plight of the travellers has now gone.
They illegally broke onto the property and then left all their rubbish, gas canisters etc for others to clear up.
Pass my comments onto the department responsible for overseeing the planning application for Oaklands Farm and possible permanent Gypsy site.

Many thanks for letting me know the situation.

The group of travellers have now been evicted.

Unfortunately they have left a lot of their rubbish behind and the path looks a right mess.

For so few people to cause such an eyesore is quite unbelievable. Who is responsible for tidying this up as they have been moved on?

As I mentioned in my previous e mail, any sympathy that local residents may have had for the plight of the travellers has now gone.

They illegally broke onto the property and then left all their rubbish, gas canisters etc for others to clear up.

Would you please pass my comments onto the department responsible for overseeing the planning application for Oaklands Farm and possible permanent Gypsy site.

I certainly don't want them anywhere near me if this is how their colleagues behave
