A group of travellers who moved onto a town centre car park have now left.

It is believed they moved into the Sittingbourne Road site in Maidstone on Friday.

About a quarter of the premises was occupied, with around six caravans on site.

However, the convoy moved off the car park voluntarily on Sunday afternoon.

A Maidstone council spokesman said the group had left a small amount of rubbish which was cleaned up this morning.
