TWO unauthorised traveller caravan camps have been reported at sites across Warrington.

This is according to an unauthorised encampment log for Cheshire and Warrington operated by Cheshire West and Chester Council.

Both encampments were uploaded onto the log by the Cheshire and Warrington Traveller Team today, Monday.

The first encampment is at United Utilities, based at Lingley Mere Business Park in Great Sankey.

Five caravans and associated towing vehicles have pitched up without permission, having arrived on Friday.

The latest update from the log states that Cheshire Police officers are to attend the privately-owned site.

The second site where an unauthorised encampment has been reported is Silver Lane in Risley.

The location has been the subject of a number of caravan incursions over recent years, with three caravans and towing vehicles pitching up there on Saturday.

The log states that a council officer is to attend due to the land being council-owned.
