The trails of destruction from Eton to beauty spots

60 CARAVANS AT ETON The prestigious public school had to seek an eviction order after 300 travellers in around 0 caravans descended on its football fields, just 100 metres from the school buildings. Huge divots of mud were created by the arrival of mobile homes and cars in 2002, when Prince Harry was a pupil. Police eventually moved them on. BREWERY SMASHED A GROUP of 100 wreaked havoc on Thwaites Brewery, Lancashire, last month, stripping wiring, trashing offices and leaving human waste on the carpets. Police raided an illegal camp in Leverhulme Park, Bolton, 12 miles away, and arrested five men. Family business Thwaites had to stop production at the 211-yearold brewery having been left with £100,000 worth of damage. 250 TONS OF RUBBISH SOILED mattresses, bath tubs and refrigerators were among 250 tons of rubbish strewn on green fields in south-east London. Travellers camped on private land near Bickley Manor, Bromley, last June. Locals who co-own the fields were told it would cost £100,000 for the clear-up job. CRICKET NETS SLASHED HUNDREDS of gypsies had to be evicted after setting up an illegal camp in the grounds of a £10,500a-year private school – and slashing their cricket nets. The group set up 50 caravans in the grounds of King Henry VIII School in the upmarket suburb of Earlsdon, Coventry.
