Legal challenge to travellers camp
6:10am Saturday 4th July 2009
LEGAL steps are being taken to move on a group of travellers who set up camp in Winchester.
Police said around nine caravans and two vehicles were spotted outside an empty warehouse at an industrial estate in Chilcomb Lane.
They added that landowners had started the eviction process after the travellers arrived on Monday, June 29.
Police said they were monitoring the site, but there were no reports of any disturbances.

It's the Government laws from 1994 that have caused these problems, by stopping people camping on Common land. The Gypsy community is the most misunderstood ethnic group in this country,take the time to understand there distinctive culture the world would be a happier and fairer place.
gypsy's don't exist anymore, all we see is the conmen in transits using the land they tresspass on as a free dump.
the government increased tax on waste tipping so the pikeys go round undercutting the waste companies and just dump it on the land they park on untill they cannot move and then move on to another site.
read the echo today and another pensioner has been coaught out by two irishmen who ogffered to fix the guttering for £15 and then took £1300?
Travellers are comnmen, violent and disgusting. we all know this, sadly the councils just bend over backwards for this worst minority and the police just let travellers get away with everything.
