An unauthorised encampment has reappeared on public playing fields in Newport. Caravans and vehicles were seen on the pitches at Kimberley Park, off Malpas Road, on Saturday, July 18. This comes days after Albion Rovers FC suspended all training and matches due to a previous encampment at the site. The club notified Newport City Council, which is working to resolve the situation. Residents have expressed concern about the duration of the encampment and its impact on use of the fields by children and local teams.
