THE GROWING problem of travellers illegally encamping in Thurrock and surrounding areas continued as Essex Police gave a group who had encamped in Chadwell St Mary, 24 hours to move on.
The travellers have settled in the Claudian Way area of Chadwell.
Thurrock police inspector, Lee Argent announced on twitter that they had been given their marching orders.
The whole of Essex has seen unprecedented levels of illegal encampment this summer.
24 hours?
I’ll believe it when I see it!
3 days gone now, but the travellers are still there!
