FOUR caravans and associated vehicles have set up camp outside the Harvester restaurant in Westbrook.
Warrington Borough Council has been made aware of the unlawful encampment at the Apollo Park site, off Charon Way.
A spokesman said: "We have been liaising with the land owner who is in the process of instructing bailiffs to evict the encampment."
The council believes the group have left the site and moved onto land belonging to Toys R Us.
An encampment comprising five caravans and associated vehicles has also arrived onto land, off Valiant Close, in Padgate.
The spokesman added: “We are in the process of ascertaining the ownership of the land and will be conducting welfare checks on the group.”
