POLICE were called to escort travellers from a Droitwich Spa recreation area at the weekend.
Around ten caravans settled on King George Playing Fields, off Briar Mill, on Friday.
Wychavon District Council ordered their removal and the itinerants were gone by 9am on Saturday.
A police spokeswoman said the travellers were escorted onto the M5 southbound.
Droitwich Spa town councillor John Cook (Lab, Droit.West) said: "I had lots of complaints from concerned residents this weekend. When travellers visited the Spa last summer they left a terrible mess."
