A group of travellers have been told to move on after setting up camp at Epping Forest College.

Essex Police issued the group with a section 61 notice requiring them to leave today (November 26), after they were called to the site in Borders Lane, Loughton, yesterday at around 5.20pm.

Officers met with college representatives and travellers before serving the notice, telling the group of around seven caravans to leave by midday tomorrow.

The site has previously been used by travellers, with a group of around ten caravans and seven vans breaking into the middle block of the college in June and staying for more than a week.
