Local people's reaction to the three proposed travellers sites

What people thought about the travellers sites plans when Central News spoke to residents when plans were unveiled by the council in February.

"Doesn't bother me in the slightest. They have been there for a while anyway and never caused us any problems."

"Hopefully my insurance won't go up and we don't want an increase in crime, not meaning to be stereotypical."

"If it's well thought out and it's safe and secure, then they have to go somewhere don't they."
