Travellers set up camp off Yorkminster Drive

SOLIHULL Council has confirmed it is working to remove a group of travellers which has moved onto parkland in Chelmsley Wood.
The caravans rolled onto Bluebell Recreation Ground, off Yorkminster Drive, yesterday (Thursday) and are understood to have travelled from over the border in Birmingham.
The stretch of road had been blocked between the junction of Bluebell Drive and Lyecroft Avenue as the vehicles drove onto the open space.
In a statement this morning, the council said: "We are aware of travellers on Yorkminster Drive and are currently liaising with the police about the situation. We will update further when we have more details."
The latest encampment comes just a week after a group of around a dozen caravans pitched up on the green space adjacent to Castle Bromwich Hall Gardens.
