Travellers move on to play area - Hampshire

From the News

TRAVELLERS have set up camp at a play area in Leigh Park.

An encampment of Travellers is currently at Bitterne Park, off Bitterne Close, which is close to Staunton Country Park.

There are currently four caravans and a number of vehicles.

The area is a green open space that is used by local children and families.

Havant Borough Council has visited the site and has started the process of repossession through legal proceedings.

A spokeswoman for the council said: ‘Until such time as we can reclaim the park land, Havant Borough Council will continue to work closely with Hampshire Constabulary to ensure that the proper procedures within the law are followed.’
