A FAMILY of travellers who sited a caravan and a lorry on the forecourt of the redundant BP garage on High Street, Evesham have moved on.

The gipsies arrived at the site on Wednesday and left there two days later.

PC Tom Iddon said the family were travellers who were trying to find somewhere to settle down. He said the site was monitored by police to make sure there were no problems, and to see if the gipsies needed any help.
