escort1 Â Â 10 #1 Posted August 31, 2015 Just drove past football field at top end of St Aidans road (just up from the old captive queen pub) and there are caravans parked on it. Are they travellers who have set up camp or is it people connected with the Sheffield Fayre in Norfolk Park? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Luckily after about 6 weeks they moved on.  After they moved I requested the council installed some sort of barrier to stop road access to the field, to which they declined.  I imagine at some point it will become a gypsie haven again, but luckily I have now moved.  ---------- Post added 31-08-2015 at 13:32 ----------  What do you think will happen if you go near them? Genuine question.  Unless you have a lot of support, do not approach them, they get very aggressive! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
