How Silver Lane in Risley looked last Thursday
TRAVELLERS have made their way back onto Silver Lane in Risley – less than a week since the last encampment was removed from the site.
The council has been informed of the group on the land and will be carrying out welfare checks 'as soon as possible'.
A gate to prevent anybody unlawfully setting up camp on the site is set to be delivered in the next two weeks.
The council carried out a clean-up operation on Silver Lane and Birchwood Forest Park last Friday after travellers left a day earlier.
Incredibly frustrating to have travellers back on Silver Lane in Risley - it is less than a week since the last encampment was removed
