A clean up operation is under way after an encampment of travellers left behind debris on a seafront.
Photographs show canisters, clothing and food left behind in Marine Drive, Goring Gap, after caravans pitched up at the site on Saturday.
Photographs also show wooden bollards have been knocked down.
Caravans were also parked alongside the skate park in Beach Green in Lancing on Friday evening and on Hove Lawns from Thursday night to Friday.
A spokesman from Adur and Worthing Councils said the encampment has now left and the site is being cleaned.
He said: “Following collaboration between agencies and use of police powers, there is no longer an encampment at Goring Gap. The site will be cleaned today. We thank residents for their patience and for the joint efforts of all involved.
“West Sussex County Council has served notice to direct the travellers in Highdown to remove their vehicles and belongings and leave the land. West Sussex has applied to the courts to seek eviction. Sussex Police continue to monitor the site and review frequently taking into account any reports received relating to antisocial behaviour.”
