BUSINESSES on Carlton Industrial Estate got their Christmas wish when travellers who set up camp moved on at the weekend - but the travellers have moved their ten or so caravans on to Sandygate Lane.
One local businessman who asked not to named said he had locked his doors and was only trading with account holders and customers he knows personally.
Local residents are also complaining about the mess which has been made since the travellers turned up.
** The full story is in the Barnsley Chronicle, dated December 24. **
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
