Vikki Irwin
BBC Radio Suffolk political reporter
A councillor has said he understands residents' concerns over a traveller encampment at Kesgrave.
Earlier this week up to 13 caravans left having spent about a month on land next to The Farmhouse pub. About 70 people attended a meeting last night which talked about putting temporary barriers around open spaces.
Christopher Hudson, Conservative county councillor for Kesgrave, said: "I understand why because [residents] were faced with a lot of mess. We're still asking those questions - is it going to happen again and how do we stop it?"

The Press Association's Ben Kendall has taken the plunge as this year's Latitude Festival, where swimmers have been allowed to use a lake on the site for the first time.
He says: I decided to jump right in while my wife eased herself in more gently. The water was warmer than expected and, once you were in, brilliantly refreshing."
"With summer well and truly here, it is difficult to think of a better way to relax after a hard day of listening to music, getting sunburnt and over-eating."

We've been asking whether you were caught up in the queues on the A12 yesterday as festival-goers made their way to Latitude.
We've had this reply from Jan Dyes, who says: "Yes we were caught in the queues for Latitude yesterday. Four of us had tickets for the 17:00 show at Southwold Summer Theatre. We left Needham Market at 13:40 - by 16:45 we were just north of Darsham and had long realised that we were not going to make it so turned back."
