Well done Stratford upon Avon council

[RichardHelen262]

We have just arrived in Stratford and after reading that they had put height barriers in behind the leisure centre after recent problems with travelers, this is true, but they have now made 9 dedicated places for motorhome parking only

And what's to stop travellers setting up camp in that area?

Nothing it’s just not as big an area for them to set up in.
There is actually a couple of them set up just to the left of the motorhome area

Well that'll stop the travellers ... they always pay the charges
and if they don't the council take action

Oh wait that should read
"Well that will NOT stop the travellers ... they NEVER pay the charges
and if they don't the council DON'T take action"

Are you certain? Twasn't just a Midsummer Night's Dream?
No chance of the Merchant of Menace (The Parking Warden)
coming by and giving you Much Ado About Nothing then?

Genuine questions - because I'm truly interested. Do you think councils should never provide motorhome facilities because of that risk, and two, in what way would you like to see such areas protected against those you disapprove of?

Extra question for the OP - What do the signs say?

Good luck to this council and to all others making an attempt to accomodate us.
