Two Traveller groups pitch camp at Turlin Moor - Dorset

From the Daily Echo

TWO groups of Travellers in more than 30 vans have taken up residence on a well-used open space in Poole.


Police say the first arrived at Turlin Moor Recreation Ground in Hamworthy overnight on Sunday and the second on Tuesday night. They are spread across both ends of the recreation ground, which contains a children's playground and the sports pavilion used by Poole Rugby Club.

The Borough of Poole has yet to make an official comment.

Former Turlin Moor councillor Lou Knight said: “We had travellers last year. It's a regular occurrence that they come. We have to put up with quad bikes, motorbikes, and cars being driven up and down the field by kids. They're a nuisance when you live right opposite.”
