TRAVELLERS have set up camp on a former hospital site in Hampshire.

A group of 12 children, seven dogs and ten adults have settled on a space on the former Coldeast Hospital Site near to the Lord Wilson School in Sarisbury Green and have been issued with a notice to leave the site.

Councillor Sean Woodward, leader of Fareham Borough Council said: "We can confirm that travellers have occupied the site since Thursday night."

Fareham Borough Council added that they are working with the Police and the landowner to move the travellers.
