This site is currently occupied by one Gypsy and Traveller family as a tolerated site. This means the site has been occupied for over 10 years. Indeed, it is believed that this particular site has been at this location for approximately 45 years, occupied by the same family. The current site accommodates two pitches. The constraints of the site are such that the site could not accommodate any additional pitches for the accommodation of other families.

The track on which the site is located currently provides a link from the public highway known as Westoning Road to a network of Public Footpaths.

By enabling a diversion of the pathway, a certificate of lawful development could give the site authorisation.
