Travellers have arrived in Torbay, pitching up in Galmpton on Monday evening.
So far, there are 7 caravans parked on Warborough Common near Windy Corner.
Boulders surround the area but these were simply moved to gain access.
There have been reports on social media of men knocking on doors in the local area, offering to tarmac driveways.
One resident told us:
“This isn’t the first time that travellers have set up there. It seems to get earlier every year, I guess everyone is taking advantage of this great weather!”
We come down to Torbay regularly and I’ll bet that if we pitched our Campervan like they do ,someone would soon be down on us like a ton of bricks
They need removing ASAP. My parents live right onto the common and end up traumatised by them every year. The abuse they received last year was intolerable and like the lady below said, if we rocked up and parked in there we would be moved straight off with a fine to help us. Get them off now
Just leave them be. They’re just trying to earn a living and live their life like everyone else!!
