A group of travellers are to be kicked off land after they were allegedly spotted causing criminal damage.
The travellers moved on to council land behind Waitrose in Southchurch, Southend.
A council spokeswoman said: "They have been served Section 61 notices because they were seen causing criminal damage to the site.
"A private developer owns part of the land and on behalf of them bailiffs will also be serving notices on the travellers to evict them."
