Travellers Spark Fury by Setting Up Camp on Ryde Sports Field
A convoy of travellers has sparked anger among locals after pitching up on land behind the Westridge Centre in Ryde, Isle of Wight.
Ten Vans Invade Sports Field Overnight
Last weekend, around ten caravans and lorries suddenly appeared, taking over the sports field. Locals were caught off guard by the unexpected arrival.
Residents Blast ‘False’ Excuses
“There are ten vans. They turned up three days ago,” said a local resident who wished to remain anonymous. “They claimed a lorry driver swerved, but that just isn’t true. I cycled past the day before and there was nothing there.”
Council Silent Amid Backlash
The land is believed to be owned by the Isle of Wight Council, which has been approached for comment but remains tight-lipped as the situation unfolds.
