A GROUP of travellers which illegally set up camp in Spring Meadow Park in Droitwich, have not left despite being served a notice to leave.
The town council gave the travellers the order, which stated they had to leave by midday on Wednesday, with the help of local police officers.
Having arrived overnight between Sunday and Monday, the group, with their five caravans and other vehicles, have not budged – as of Friday morning.
Now, the town council, working with a solicitor, is awaiting a court date which could take up to early next week.
Sergeant Sarah Kent has said police patrols have been stepped up in the area while the travellers are present.
