The group moved onto the site on Sunday and have been situated there since.
Travellers have been ordered to leave a Tesco car park in Leyland due to being on private land. A fleet of caravans moved onto the Tesco Extra car park in Towngate on Sunday afternoon, close to the petrol station. After it was reported to Lancashire Police by the supermarket, officers visited the group last night in a bid to remove the travellers from the site.

“The police may intervene in the future if further legal efforts are taken and the council wants the travellers off the land.” The plot of land on which the caravans have occupied is not owned by Tesco and instead owned by South Ribble Borough Council. South Ribble Borough Council have been approached for a comment. Passers-by and locals shared their views on the travellers with some saying that they should be able to stay, whilst some felt they should move onto a different site.
