A34 Gypsy Camp

Has there been any comment from the police about the gypsy camp on the new by-pass? In particular whether they are staying there on a temporary or permanent basis.

We were first informed about the traveller’s camp by one of our members on Monday, 25th July.

They had notified Cheshire East Council who said they would be sending a team there that day to do a ‘mandatory welfare assessment’.

I followed up by contacting CEC on Monday and again on Thursday for information but have yet to receive a response. I’ll let you know if we receive any information.

I was asked this afternoon if I knew the whereabouts of a caravan site by a guy in a yellow Ford Transit Pickup with garden waste in the back - now reading this ?

I have no idea regarding the rules and regulations over travelers’ sites. I’d be interested to know if the council has a duty to provide amenities or what rights they have to move them on etc. I doubt they’ve raised much interest/concern as they are not overlooked by anyone and perhaps not causing a nuisance to anyone. Their location is pretty discreet.

will all the households of alderley edge who have had any work done by them also go and tidy up their garden waste etc that they will leave behind when they move on instead of it been cleared by cheshire east at our expense as per evisons field the last 2 years

Cheshire East Council have confirmed that notices to quit the land were served by the community wardens on Friday of last week.

The travellers have until Thursday to move on and the Council are attending court on Thursday to obtain an eviction order for them to gain possession of the land.

saw them leaving yesterday, anyone whose of the opinion “they do no harm”  quaint gypsys etc go and look at the state of whats left behind the grass verge all chewed up piles of bin bags,  rubbish piles of garden waste and household rubbish .the new planted trees tree guards all thrown around and all free of charge to them move on and leave their mess behind for us mugs to pay to get cleared away .
