From the Bournemouth Echo
BOURNEMOUTH council will go to court on Monday if Travellers currently camped at Queens Park do not move on of their own accord.
A 17-vehicle party of Travellers moved onto the field near the Queens Park golf course on Saturday afternoon, following the removal of a boulder protecting the entrance.
They said they were just passing through and intended to stay until Wednesday at the latest. They also pledged to leave the site clean and tidy.
But they were still there yesterday and Bournemouth council confirmed it had secured a court date for 10am on Monday to try and force them to leave.
Council officers have been visiting the site every day, carrying out litter picks and supplying the Travellers with refuse bags. They have also checked security at other council sites in case Travellers move to one of those.
