Fun4All in Chester. Pic: Google Street View. A FAMILY of Travellers have been told to leave their second site in Chester in less than a month. Cheshire West and Chester Council successfully obtained a court order from Chester Magistrates Court ordering the family to leave the site, having failed to comply with an eviction notice. But the family didn t move far, and set up an unauthorised encampment half a mile away at the grounds of the Fun4All soft play centre on Hartford Way, off Bumpers Lane. The centre is due to reopen on May 20. Cheshire West and Chester Council has therefore gone through the same procedure as before, serving the family with an eviction notice and, when the family failed to comply with it by 5pm on May 1, applying for a removal order from Chester Magistrates Court on Wednesday, May 12.
