A CARAVAN park used by holidaymakers for decades stands almost deserted as people move on ahead of the deadline to leave.

These photos show what the Ketch Caravan Park looks like now after the eviction order as the deadline for moving on looms.

Only a few static caravans remain at the caravan park just off the A38 in Worcester with skips and empty pitches the only evidence of a once thriving holiday community.

Broken decking partially dismantled, tyre tracks in the mud and the paving slabs of abandoned pitches make for a forlorn sight at the idyllic riverside location.

One woman who wished to be known only as Sue, one of the few still on site, said she was donating her static caravan to the RSPCA.

Sue said: "It's devastating for us all. I would say more than three quarters have left and one staying until the end of the month.

"I'm donating my static caravan to the RSPCA and they're going to use it for meet and greet for the dogs."

Sue, who has used to Ketch Caravan Park for 28 years and is from London, added: "I have two daughters that live up here. That's why I got the static in the first place. But I bear nobody any ill-feeling over this.

"It is certainly the end of an era. I would never do it again. I would live here from April until the end of October. You will never get a view like this anywhere else. But I can't change anything."

As previously reported, caravan owners received a letter in April from Tremlo Limited which read: "You will need to leave the Park by that date and to make arrangements to remove the holiday home and any other personal possessions from the Park by no later than November 30, 2023 (being one month from the date of termination).

"The Agreement will of course remain in force until October 31, 2023, and you will be entitled to continue to occupy the holiday home until that date."

The site managers have so far declined to comment.
