Travellers leave a load of rubbish at Earls Road - Cheshire

From wilmslow.co.uk

A group of Travellers that set up camp on Earls Road last week have moved on leaving piles of rubble and rubbish behind them.


They arrived in the early hours of Tuesday, February 18th, and parked up nine caravans and 11 vehicles on council owned land, adjacent to the Handforth Dean retail park.

The Travellers moved on on Wednesday evening, having been served with a notice to quit by Monday, 24th February, by Cheshire East Council.

This is the same site where Travellers set up camp in August, September and November last year, however these were a different group.

On each occasion the Travellers have gained access by moving the two large tree stumps, which the Council placed across Earls Road to act as a blockage.

Wesley Hutton, Team Leader at Cheshire East Council, was at the site on Thursday to assess the clean up operation. They will return on Monday, 3rd February, to clean up all the litter that has been left behind. Then one day next week they will load up all the rubble onto a lorry and take it to a waste transfer site, as it will be too heavy for them to transport by tractor and trailor.
