Families in a leafy millionaires' village have been left 'horrified' after an alleged traveller camp was illegally set up during a suspected land-grab.
Locals in the picturesque community of Bramley, near Guildford, Surrey, say their tranquil rural idyll has been under siege for days.
A group allegedly arrived late on Friday night, using construction equipment to rip up a field and smash through hedges, before laying down hard-standing and fencing in a 'military operation'.
Locals say the blitz took a matter of hours, transforming the once-quiet patch of grassland - close to a nature reserve and exclusive golf club - into an encampment.
At least five caravans are now pitched there following the alleged land-grab, which has outraged local families in the well-to-do village, where homes can reach an eye-watering £3.25million, with the average house price hitting almost £700,000.
