Travellers leave illegal camp set up in Coventry just hours before council deadline - Warwickshire

From the Coventry Telegraph

A group of Travellers have finally moved off a popular Coventry park – just hours before the bailiffs were due to be called in.


Coventry City Council had given those living on the illegal camp in Longford Park until 5pm on Saturday to leave the site.

They had originally moved on to the north side of the park on Sunday, July 7.

Having failed to heed an initial 24-hour notice period to leave the park, in Oakmoor Road, earlier in the week, city council chiefs had served the travellers with another deadline, which would have seen the authority seek an eviction through the county courts had they remained on the site.
