“People power” saw residents turn out in force for a four-hour stand-off with Travellers who drove on to a football and cricket pitch.

More than 30 Patcham residents turned up in protest after Travellers drove on to the grass of Patcham United Football Club and the Crescent Cricket Club in Horsdean Recreation Ground in Vale Avenue, Brighton.

Eight camper vans were seen entering the field and parking on the grass at about 6.20pm last night (Wednesday, June 11).
