A CAMPER who has been staying at the bandstand in Ross-on-Wye has been evicted.

Samantha Lamputt set up camp at the bandstand by the River Wye a few weeks ago.

She was evicted by bailiffs yesterday on instruction from the town council. 

The council made an application for possession at Caroline Symonds Gardens, Long Acre and the Rope Walk following the encampment. 

A civil hearing took place at Gloucester County Court and the judge granted the order and Ms Lamputt was informed she would have to vacate the area forthwith.
