A TRAVELLER encampment has moved onto green space in Fearnhead.

Three caravans and their associated vehicles have set up on land at Peel Hall Park.

According to an unauthorised encampment log for Cheshire and Warrington, which is operated by Cheshire West and Cheshire Council, the group first arrived on the council-owned land on Saturday.

It is expected that an officer will attend the encampment on Blackbrook Avenue within the next few days.

It comes after seven unauthorised traveller camps left the town last week.

They set up in various areas across Warrington including car parks, a gym, and a supermarket.
