An “unauthorised encampment” has vacated the Sixfields area of Northampton after being served a police notice.

Around 10 to 15 motorhomes were spotted last night (August 24) by this newspaper in the car park of the former Firejacks restaurant, which is set to become the town’s first ever Wagamama after plans were approved last month.
