The group of four vehicles arrived at Lancing Manor Park yesterday morning but were shortly after given a notice of eviction by West Sussex County Council, on behalf of Adur District Council.

A spokesman for the county council said a request was also made for police powers to direct the group to the West Sussex transit site in Chichester.

The request was granted and two caravans left the area, the spokesman said, with two more relocating to the transit site this morning (July 9).
