5:56Now PlayingTom Swarbrick visits the sleepy village of Sundridge, Kent to investigate reports of travellers staging 'organised' land grabs.
Over a bank holiday earlier in the year, a traveller family moved onto a piece of land that they owned but didn't have planning permission to build on.
Tom speaks to local farmer John Evans, who lives close to where the traveller site has appeared.
He tells LBC that over a weekend, the residents 'bulldozed a piece of countryside' in what he describes as a 'well-organised, military operation'.
