Council acts on travellers at Whinfield Recreation Ground
There are several official sites for travellers in Warwickshire including one owned by Rugby Borough Council.
The travellers currently occupying land at the end of Whinfield Recreation Ground are doing so without the consent of Rugby Borough Council.
Eastlands Ward councillors have been working with the Council, police and local residents to resolve the situation. Rugby Borough Council has applied to the County Court for an eviction order and we understand this will be heard on Monday 17 November 2014.
Eastlands Ward councillors have written to all the residents in the surrounding streets and advised them of the action being taken by the Council.
