People parking caravans on their own land without planning permission are not unauthorised encampments (in that they cannot trespass on their own land) – they are ‘Unauthorised Developments’ and are always dealt with by enforcement of planning legislation by the Local Planning Authority within the relevant District and Borough Council. Northamptonshire County Council is not involved in these cases. In the first instance contact the Countywide Traveller Unit on 01604 236236.
