Because of the UK housing crisis, there has been a dramatic increase in the numbers of unauthorized encampments - a move that is bolstered by the shortage of authorized sites in Preston for campers.
This shortage of authorized sites in Preston has resulted into an increase in the amount of travellers setting up on unauthorized encampments in Fulwood, Leyland, or Bamber Bridge in the likes of car parks as well as playing fields.
According to statistics from the government, from 2016 to 2017 there was a 17 percent increase in the number of travellers on unauthorized areas in Preston that are not owned by travellers.
In contrast, between 2010 and 2017, there was just a 2% increase in lands in Lancashire rented socially.
There are two ways to remove travellers from unauthorized grounds in Bamber Bridge, Fulwood, or Leyland if you are a land owner or local government in Lancashire.
The first is Eviction in Lancashire using Common Law.
The common law gives Preston landholders the legitimate right to eject travellers from their Lancashire property and can use reasonable force if any is needed.
Traveller evictions under the common rule in Preston are normally done by the law enforcement representatives.
The Denbigh Franks enforcement officers will serve a notice that gives the travellers 1 day to leave the Preston site.
If travellers don't vacate the place in Leyland, Bamber Bridge, or Fulwood within the given time, then agents from Denbigh Franks will go back with the equipment and police if needed, to remove the travellers from the land.
In Lancashire, common law has many different advantages.
The biggest is the speed at which the eviction in Preston takes place.
Usually, the eviction takes place within 24 hours, and thus, any damage to the property in Preston is less than what it would have been in a longer period of time.
The other option for Lancashire local authorities and landowners is to obtain a writ of possession.
Receiving an order of occupancy is the first move to evicting under a custody warrant in Preston.
The order of possession is made against the "persons unknown" while dealing with travellers or intruders in Leyland, Bamber Bridge, or Fulwood.
The moment the property holder has been served with the notice of ownership in Preston, it is normally moved to High Court to be executed by a Denbigh Franks High Court officer.
One of the biggest benefits you can enjoy from transferring a writ of possession in Lancashire to the High Court is that giving a notice is not mandatory and that decision is left to the Denbigh Franks HCEO exclusively.
It is more beneficial at the time of dealing with the travellers in Preston who refuse to move on from the land as it takes away the opportunity of damaging the property from them, they cannot steal or show any kind of resistance at the time of eviction in Lancashire.
It is usually better to take preventive measures to avoid the occurrence of these incidents when handling an eviction in Bamber Bridge, Fulwood, or Leyland and the possible money and time that may be wasted so there are a few things that can be done by local authorities and land owners in Lancashire to avoid the occurrence of these situations.
Preston landlords may decide to build fences as well as gates on their property and put up a big bollard around the gates and by so doing, you will prevent unauthorised persons from gaining entrance to the property.
Other preventive measures include securing your property in Preston with embankment as well as trenches and earth bunds.
