Police have removed a large group of travellers who set up camp in Mill Hill over the weekend.
About two dozen caravans descended on a plot of wasteland in Bunns Lane on Friday night, near to the junction with Flower Lane.
The group initially told officers they would be leaving for the south coast on Monday, but police and site owners Taylor Wimpey were forced to serve eviction papers on the families yesterday morning.
A large number of officers visited the camp in the afternoon and moved the travellers off the gated site, which was later made secure again.
