CONCERNS have been raised following the council’s decision to provide bins to a travelling community, who had illegally parked up in Westbrook.
The group, who had moved on to the land behind the Memphis Belle pub, were given bins but the decision was made in a bid the keep the area tidy.
A council spokesman said: “The council was in the process of getting an eviction notice from the courts but in the meantime the site has been vacated. Bins were provided on site to help keep the area tidy.”
