Councils order the demolition of an illegal traveller site built on protected green-belt land near Romford, Essex, according to reporting that follows enforcement action taken in late November. The accounts describe the location as fields that were previously untouched, and they say officials moved to address the development around Friday, November 28, ahead of the weekend. The reports characterize the action as stopping what they call a rapid “land grab,” but they also frame it as enforcement against unauthorised development on protected land. The specific details of the site’s size, the legal basis for the order, and whether an appeal is available are not included in the provided extracts. No figures are quoted in the supplied text, and there is no detail here on whether occupants have responded or how quickly demolition would take place. Overall, the coverage agrees on the core points that the site is illegal, it is situated on green-belt fields near Romford, and local officials require demolition.
