After that group left the area, and a second left a camp on open ground near Lyons Farm in Worthing, Adur and Worthing Councils said four truckloads of rubbish had to be removed in a clean-up operation.
There were also numerous reports of anti-social behaviour and anti-social driving, according to Sussex Police.
