Travellers pledge to leave Cheltenham site - Gloucestershire

From the Gloucestershire Echo

TRAVELLERS who had moved into a play area in Cheltenham are set to leave today.


The family of Travellers from Durham took over the swing area behind Hallmead Close, in Pilgrove Way last Tuesday.

Four cars and caravans were parked in the area.

Cheltenham Borough Council officers were told last week by the Travellers that they planned to move on Monday.

A spokesman for the Borough Council said: "We are monitoring the situation and regularly inspecting the site."

Complaints were lodged with Gloucestershire Police after the move, and officers have been to the site to tell the Travellers to keep it clean.

The Travellers promised to tidy the site before they leave.
