In addition to the ongoing housing crisis in the UK, the number of accredited sites in Buckinghamshire for travellers to settle on are also limited.
There is a shortage of approved sites in Buckinghamshire for travellers to establish themselves and this resulted in a rise in the numbers of travellers setting up on unapproved sites in Amersham, Aylesbury, or High Wycombe like cark parks and playing areas.
According to government records, in 2016 to 2017 the number of caravans setting up on authorized plots in Buckinghamshire has been increased up to 17%.
On the other hand there was only a 2% rise in socially rented plots in Buckinghamshire between 2010 to 2017.
As a landowner in Buckinghamshire, you can choose from two options to repossess your land and evict travellers in Amersham, High Wycombe, or Aylesbury.
The first alternative is to evict travellers in Buckinghamshire by making use of common law.
The common law gives Buckinghamshire landholders the legitimate right to eject travellers from their Buckinghamshire property and can use reasonable force if any is needed.
Evictions under common law in Buckinghamshire are carried out by enforcement agents.
The Denbigh Franks enforcement agents notify the traveller to leave the site in Buckinghamshire within a deadline of 24 hours.
In case a traveller declines to vacate the premise in Aylesbury, High Wycombe, or Amersham within the agreed time of 24 hours, Denbigh Franks enforcers may return with their tools and possibly accompanied by police if necessary to evict the available traveller forcefully.
There are numerous benefits to using common law eviction in Buckinghamshire.
The main benefit is the speed at which a traveller is removed from Buckinghamshire.
In a lot of instances eviction carried out under the common law can be carried out within one day, amplifying there is less time for possible damage to the land or property in Buckinghamshire and therefore reducing fly tipping chances.
Another option for both local authorities and landowners in Buckinghamshire is to get the writ of possession.
The first step when evicting under writ of possession in Buckinghamshire is obtaining an order of possession.
When dealing with squatters and travellers in Amersham, Aylesbury, or High Wycombe, the order of possession is served against "unknown person".
As soon as the order of possession is granted in Buckinghamshire, it can be transferred up to the High Court by the petitioner where the Denbigh Franks HCEO (High Court Enforcement Officer) then enforces it.
One of the reasons why the use of writ of possession is beneficial to Buckinghamshire land owners is because no notice would be issued to the travellers encroaching on the claimant's land, also, it is up to the Denbigh Franks HCEO to give a notice or take the travellers by surprise.
This method is beneficial to landowners because the Buckinghamshire travellers or squatters are caught off guard and it minimizes the chances for resisting to vacate, stealing or destroying the property in Buckinghamshire.
Avoiding this types of situations from happening at first is always preferring to deal with an eviction in Amersham, Aylesbury, or High Wycombe and the potential time and money involved and so there are several things that Buckinghamshire property owners and local authorities can apply to prevent these occurrences from happening.
Landowners in Buckinghamshire can erect fences and gates around their land and put in place huge bollards at the entrances, and doing so will greatly help in preventing authorized individuals from entering a piece of land.
In comparison, embankments, soil bunds and pits are also a perfect way to secure a land area in Buckinghamshire from unwanted visitors.
